September 3 to 6 - La Fête de la Musique at Tremblant

75 free outdoor concerts

The Fête de la Musique, with Angèle Dubeau as the artistic director: jazz and classical music

The Fête de la Musique with Angèle Dubeau as artistic director, the return of a grandiose event!

"It was with great pride that the organizers of Fête de la Musique received the "Grand prix du tourisme des Laurentides 2009" last May.

On that high note, we invite you to join us for an entire weekend and share the musical passion of more than 250 of our very own homegrown musicians. We have organized 75 free concerts and musical activities for your enjoyment.

I would like to welcome Mæstro Kent Nagano on his first visit to Tremblant, where he and the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal will be opening the festivities.

In the stunning natural setting of Tremblant and the warm ambience of the village, this musical journey will appeal to all tastes and styles: from classical to jazz and the music of the world over, many genres and many magical, memorable moments lie ahead.

Let the music begin!"

Angèle Dubeau, C.M., C.Q.
Artistic Director

Join us from September 3rd to 6th, 2010!
