Rwandan songs mingle with the textures of the theorbo of Kerry Bursey and the gheychak fiddle of Reza Abaee (Iran), creating a rich dialogue between traditions. Added to this framework are the Scottish and Irish influences of the Maritime repertoire, carried by singer and violinist Janelle Lucyk.<\/p>\n<p>* First part of the closing show: Oli F\u00e9ra \u2013 Zone Montmorency Saturday August 22, 2026, 7:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. After having distinguished himself at the Granby International Song Festival and at Ma Premi\u00e8re Place des Arts, then having captivated the public at Francouvertes, Oli F\u00e9ra continues his rise with Femme Flamme. Carried by a powerful voice, unfiltered poetry and an incandescent stage universe, the Montreal singer-songwriter takes us into an electrifying encounter between alternative pop and indie rock.<\/p>\n<p>* Closing show: Lou-Adriane Cassidy \u2013 Montmorency Zone Saturday August 22, 2026, 7:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. After marking the first half of 2025 with Diary of a Garou Wolf, whose album and show garnered a shower of praise and unprecedented popular success, Lou-Adriane Cassidy returns to us with Triste Animal, a show taken from her fourth album of the same name.<\/p>\n<p>* Closing show: QW4RTZ \u2013 Montmorency Zone Sunday August 23, 2026, 4 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. With around fifteen professional seasons, QW4RTZ sets off for its final lap. Trad, pop, folk, rock, classical, all styles are injected into their four a cappella cylinders. Always guided by their chief engineer Serge Postigo, their a cappella formula allows Louis, Phil, Fran\u00e7ois and Fa2 to never curb their imagination, and proves that, even without a guitar, they have something under the hood.<\/p>\n<p>The Musical Zones are part of the rich cultural programming offered in Laval, which is intended to be diverse and accessible. In 2026, the City of Laval is definitely an unmissable cultural destination for people of all ages and interests!<\/p>\n<div id=\"linit-3486697520\" class=\"linit-apres-contenu linit-entity-placement\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-8992136571741975\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:inline-block;width:728px;height:90px;\" \ndata-ad-client=\"ca-pub-8992136571741975\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"6185130430\"><\/ins> \n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 11th edition of Musical Zones is almost coming to an end!
