Espace DesPrés Park (St-André de Sutton Church in case of rain)
Around a large campfire, in the Espace DesPrés park (or at St-André Church in case of rain), Alex Nevsky presents Tout ce que l’aube promet, an intimate and sensitive performance, accompanied by cellist Julie Dessureault. After the contemplative experience of De la beauté, he returns to the sung stage with a new repertoire, his instrumental pieces and a few signature pieces. This musical offering seeks to provide a suspended moment, a reconnection with nature and the living world, in a spirit of gentleness and sharing. With special participation by the local choir.
