Conducted and curated by guest conductor Dr. Jamie Hillman, CANADIANA is an ode to the multicultural musical landscape of Canada, featuring works exclusively by Canadian composers. 

Still under 40, Dr. Hillman is the newly-appointed Director of Choral Studies at the University of Toronto and a burgeoning star of the choral world. His career as a choral conductor, composer, tenor soloist, and pianist has taken him across Canada, the US, as well as France, India, and Indonesia.  

First inspired by Django Reinhardt and the gypsy jazz of the 1930s, Damoizeaux handles like no other the hybridization of vintage and colorful styles by integrating pop-jazz sounds, with a scent of cinema and poetry. Revealing an adventurous and colorful pen, the compositions of the album “En plume” released on September 25, 2020 combine elegance and finesse: in the voice as in the fluidity of the drums or in the light rhythm of the guitars.

 D’abord inspiré par Django Reinhardt et le jazz manouche des années 30, Damoizeaux manie comme personne l’hybridation des styles vintages et colorés en y intégrant des sonorités pop-jazz, avec un parfum de cinéma et de poésie. Révélant une plume aventurière et imagée, les compositions de l’album «** En plume », paru le 25 septembre 2020, allient élégance et finesse : dans la voix comme dans la fluidité de la batterie ou dans le rythme léger des guitares.

On Friday April 14 at 7 p.m., we receive Les Bouches Bées. This quartet offers us folk with a country flavor. The objective has always been to emphasize the vocal harmonies, which are the very source of the songs of Les Bouches Bées. With an exclusively acoustic instrumentation, folk and bluegrass court an almost Cajun approach to support their well-crafted French lyrics.

L’objectif a toujours été de mettre l’accent sur les harmonies vocales, qui sont la source même des chansons des Bouches Bées. Avec une instrumentation exclusivement acoustique, folk et bluegrass, ils courtisent une approche presque cajun pour soutenir leurs textes francophones bien ficelés.
