Various locations, Old Montreal, QC
The Montreal Baroque Festival is a unique early music festival that takes place in historic Old Montreal, in dusty 17th century attics, gardens, crypts, chapels, chateaux, museums, and banks! Along with the dozen concerts, you can join a grand parade through the streets of the Old City and come to the late-night musical café! The 2012 edition, APOCALYPSE, will include a stunning equestrian ballet dating back to Louis XIII’s engagement in 1612, a concert of natural trumpets with virtuosi Jean-François Madeuf (France) and Graham Nicholson (Holland), Benjamin Bagby’s brilliant rendering of Beowulf and Telemann’s Last Judgement with Ensemble Caprice.
