This annual traditional music and dance festival takes place in Montréal's beautiful Parc Lafontaine from August 10-12. For this 15th annual edition, La Grande Rencontre presents LE SOUFFLE DU NORD (Northern breeze), featuring a host of Québec and international artists. Featuring concerts, dances, entertainment and workshops, these dynamic performers and teachers will open your eyes to living music and dance traditions from here and afar. This year’s festival spokesman and the 2007 recipient of the Aldor trophy for his 30+ years as a conservationist-transmitter of traditional culture is the incomparable Jocelyn Bérubé.
