✨Après la Colombie-Britannique, le Quatuor esca poursuit son rayonnement dans l’Ouest canadien!

Le 23 octobre, les quatre musiciennes présenteront Résonances en vitrine à Alberta Showcase, devant des diffuseurs et des professionnels des arts de la scène de toute la province. Cette deuxième vitrine en quelques semaines représente une occasion privilégiée de faire découvrir leur univers, leur complicité et une approche du quatuor à cordes résolument actuelle.

Danielle Lefebvre sera également sur place pour accompagner l’ensemble, représenter tout le catalogue de l’ADL et explorer de nouvelles possibilités de diffusion pour nos artistes.
