festival

The Raoul-Jobin Hall at Palais Montcalm, with its majestic organ Casavant, is the ideal setting for Christian Thomas’ opera, adapted from Michel Tremblay’s work, Messe solennelle pour une pleine lune d’été. It features the five figures of the couple and the widow (Lyne Fortin) of the play, who will be able to rely on cinematographic music to express their pain in a ceremony to life, a prayer to love. A Quebec-style cast directed by Alain Zouvi in a setting created by Jean Bard.
