MONTRÉAL, Aug. 15, 2017 /CNW
Telbec/ - Quebecor is pleased to be the presenting partner of
La Fête de la Musique de Tremblant for the 9th
consecutive year. From September 1 to
4, the music fest mounted by Angèle Dubeau will serve up a
rich and varied mix of musical styles running the gamut from
classical to jazz and world music. Festival-goers will also be able
to relax and enjoy at the Le Piano public Québecor, a
lively, hands-on family area at the foot of the mountain.
"Quebecor has a deep and abiding commitment to promoting our
talented and diverse musical artists," said Pierre Karl Péladeau,
President and CEO of Quebecor. "So we are proud to support La Fête
de la Musique de Tremblant year after year and to help make it a

showcase for artists working in all genres and a springboard for
young musicians. I encourage everyone to come and make some

Le Piano public Québecor: Better than
ever!
To follow up on its success of 2016, Le Piano public
Québecor has been enhanced for 2017. Festival-goers will be
able to relax in the free lounge, compliments of Quebecor, and
young and old will be able to play their favourite pieces. Le
Piano public Québecor will also be the venue for shows by
well-known pianist-composer François Dompierre, accompanied by
singer Carole Aveline.
It was at the first edition of Le Piano public Québecor
that François Dompierre was struck by Carole Aveline's incredible talent. The instant
professional attraction led to this year's collaboration, in which
the two artists will share their love of music with spectators
while explaining the creative process.
Le Piano public Québecor will be located at La croisée
des chemins, close to the Le Cabriolet lift.
Performances by François Dompierre and Carole Aveline:
- Saturday, September 2,
2 p.m. to 5 p.m.
- Sunday, September 3, 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.
