A line-up of stars and great artists from here and abroad are coming together at the Stradivaria Festival to celebrate a summer full of color and emotion. Starting July 8, the artistic director of Stradivaria, the internationally renowned conductor and violinist Alexandre Da Costa, will kick off a series of exceptional events, presented in the Laurentians and ON THE RUN throughout Quebec!
“Music is made to be experienced, shared and celebrated by everyone. It must know neither barriers nor borders. Whether it resonates in a concert hall, in a public square or in the heart of a village, it has this extraordinary power to bring people together and create common emotions. I like to bring genres into dialogue, bring worlds together and surprise audiences by bringing together symphonic, jazz, opera, popular music and world traditions. Music is a universal language, a breath of freedom that brings us together beyond our differences. » says Alexandre Da Costa.
