Cinquième Salle

Soleil Launière brings us this new, intriguing, and daring soul-roots project that promises a deep and striking experience, fueled by Innu strength. On stage, with the seasoned musicians of CHANCES (Chloé Lacasse, Geneviève Toupin, and Vincent Carré), along with Simon Walls, she combines vocal harmonies and powerful percussion with performance art.

Immerse yourself in Canticles of Love, a musical tapestry born from an improbable encounter between the captivating singer Khaled Al-Hafez, a keeper of the Levant’s heritage; the magical contralto Gabrielle Cloutier, whose voice maps the contours of inner landscapes; and the spirited energy of Ensemble Vox choir, guardian of sacred harmonies.

Blending classical finesse with raw emotional depth, Canadian-Algerian soprano Fairouz Oudjida illuminates ancestral traditions, breathing new intensity into a treasured heritage of song. Her powerful voice traces the breathtaking ornamentations of Andalusian music like so many restored jewels, weaving together the nûbas of the Maghreb and the mouwachahat of the Levant in timeless harmony.
