Event Details
The program is inspired by different physical and emotional landscapes that an imaginary traveller might encounter – from the observation of deeply moving beauty in unfamiliar landscapes, to the audacity of a long journey, to the loneliness a traveller might feel far from home. Above all, their musical journey is a conversation between their instruments’ sounds and their strings’ multiple vibrations, leaving room for improvisation and exploration of the unknown.
The audience is invited to follow a geographical route from China to Italy via India, weaving in links between different historical periods and presenting music from the ancient Han dynasty (200 BC – 9 AD) to music from the nascent European Renaissance in early 15th-century Italy.

Music that makes you travel! With the sounds of jazz, the subtleties of classical, the klezmer inflections and the tango rhythms.
Renowned for their versatility, sensitivity and virtuosity, the four musicians present Villes Éternelles, in which the long and rich tradition of oriental music permeates each of Masmoudi’s compositions with its modes (maqamat) and metrics.
Masmoudi’s original compositions are permeated by the rich oriental sounds of the oud, with classical and jazz accents from Eastern Europe, complemented by piano, double bass and clarinet. A host of influences raked together along the way, in a truly open and experimental approach.
With: Guillaume Martineau on piano, Rémi-Jean Leblanc on double bass, Gabriel Paquin-Buki on clarinet and Mohamed Masmoudi on oud

The Centre des musiciens du monde presents an unusual encounter between the musical culture of the Basque Country and that of the indigenous Mig’maq nation. The fruit of a creative residency bringing together artists from these two worlds (Darlène Gijuminag, Claudine Arhancet and Michel Etxekopar), this meeting defies borders and brings together cultures that are brothers by land.
Revealing both their age-old traditions and the modernity that emanates from their recent collaborations, this concert will be punctuated by the encounter of traditional Mig’maq and Basque music, echoing the traces and faded images of their first encounters. The artists explore both real and imaginary territories, reminding us that the two communities crossed paths centuries ago.
This concert is presented in co-production with the SMCQ as part of the Montreal/New Music Festival with the participation of the Basques du Québec Euskaldunak association.
