Quebec Trad Music with De Temps Antan Leading up to the holiday season, CBC Radio 2 and Espace musique invite you to a foot- stomping evening of Quebec traditional music with De Temps Antan and their guests, on Monday, December 1, at 8 p.m., at Le Lion d’Or. Dip into the past with these timeless tunes presented with a fresh new twist. Created in 2003, this extraordinary trio includes Éric Beaudry (vocals, guitar, bouzouki, foot tapping), André Brunet (vocals, fiddle, guitar, foot tapping) and Pierre-Luc Dupuis (vocals, accordion, harmonica, Jew’s harp). With their varied instruments, these three virtuoso performers, who have also played with La Bottine Souriante, inject a spectacular freshness and energy into Quebec traditional music. For this exceptional event, the band will be joined by some very special guests: the multi- instrumentalist Juan Sebastian Larobina (Argentina/Mexico), percussionist Patrick Graham (Canada) and flutist Shuni Tsou (Taiwan). Juan Sebastian Larobina was born in Argentina and grew up in Mexico. Since discovering Quebec traditional music some years back, he has created a new genre he calls “Gaspesian Latino.” With his training in classical and contemporary music, and his exploration of many different styles of world music, Patrick Graham has developed a very personal approach to percussion and an amazing versatility, backing up performers and bands around the world. Taiwanese-born Shuni Tsou is a bamboo flutist who is classically trained in Beijing opera and Chinese classical music. This remarkable improviser has won several prestigious competitions andhas collaborated with many well-known figures in contemporary music. Together, these musicians will offer a new take on Quebec folk music, with their own special touch. It promises to be an evening of traditional music with nothing old-fashioned about it! This event is part of the Mundo Montréal series presented by CBC Radio 2 and Espace musique to showcase the vitality and diversity of the Montreal music scene. The concerts will be recorded for broadcast on CBC Radio 2 and Espace musique. All Mundo Montréal concerts are free and will be held at Le Lion d’Or.

Long Bio, Website 6.13
Grey Larsen - Long Bio Grey Larsen is a versatile and accomplished musician and an author of books on Irish music. Though he has explored many musical paths since the 1970s, he now focuses mainly on three: • Irish Flute and Tin Whistle: Larsen is a highly accomplished player and an acclaimed author. Four of his new books came out in 2013. • Concert Performances with Cindy Kallet: Intimate traditional and contemporary folk music and song. • Mastering: With a specialty in acoustic-based music. Larsen was born in 1955 in New York City. His family moved to Cincinnati, Ohio the following year. Beginning piano lessons at the age of four, he enjoyed a childhood and youth full of musical exploration, his inner world ﬁlled with the keyboard music of Bach and Mozart, as well as the early rock, R&B, and Motown sounds on the radio, the songs of contemporary folk music interpreters and traditional Appalachian and Irish music. From 1970 to 1972 he studied at the Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music before moving on, in 1973, to continue at the Oberlin Conservatory of Music in Oberlin, Ohio. While pursuing early music and composition on the one hand, he came ever more deeply under the spell of traditional music on the other, and for several years he followed these parallel streams with equal energy and dedication. In these and later years, he spent a great deal of time (in Cincinnati and Cleveland, Ohio) learning traditional Irish music from elder Irish immigrant musicians, most notably Co. Galway melodeon player Michael J. Kennedy (1900–1978), Co.

Hopsadaddy Anmeldelser
HABADEKUK – HOPSADADDY REVIEWS Habadekuk spreder godt humør med sin hopsahyldest. Det er svært ikke at blive i godt humør, når man lytter til Habadekuks »Hopsadaddy«. Titlen siger sådan set det hele. Der er for det meste fart over feltet, når det ni-mands store orkester slår sig løs med polkaer, hopsaer, raske sønderhoninger og de andre - for det meste - hastige melodier fra den danske spillemandstradition. Ikke bare er Kristian Bugge som violinist en fornøjelse at lytte til – Habadekuks varemærke er den store blæsersektion, der puster en snert af salsa og jazz ind i mange af melodierne. Det tager de ikke skade af for nu at tage den på jysk. Der er næsten karnevalsstemning over orkesterets version af »Polka Hamborger, Himmerland«, som er hentet i Smed Kristians nodebog fra 1866 i Siem i Himmerland. Sådan bærer man også en spillemandstradition videre. Bandet vil i den kommende tid blandt andet være at høre på Skagen Festivalen lørdag den 2. juli. Det vil ikke gå stille af. Flensborg Avis, Ole Sørensen 25/6 2011 Partyfolk ’La Bouttine Souriante’ kom først, så kom ’Baltinget’, og nu kommer ’Habadekuk’ med deres udgave af traditionel folkemusik på traditionelle instrumenter – tilsat blæsergruppe og rytmesektion – og farvet med jazz- og rockklichéer. ’Habadekuk’ gør det godt, spændende, livligt, vedkommende, og det hele er rigtigt set af kapelmesteren og violinspillemanden Kristian Bugge. Repertoiret er helt overvejende fløden af tidens traditionelle danske melodier – udvalgt med stor omhu. Nå, men så er det altså hamrende ærgerligt, at saxofonisten har så svært ved de frie jazzede formuleringer...når nu det også er det, de vil.

Along with brother Réjean, he created Les Frères Brunet and went on to record several albums and perform at various concerts around the world. In 1997, André’s unwavering energy and refined style earned him a spot with La Bottine Souriante, with whom he toured more than 15 countries over the course of 10 years. Although his journey with La Bottine Souriante came to an end in 2006, André remained immersed in traditional music.

Welcome to the 41St Tønder Festival Last Year’S 40Th Jubilee Was a Huge, Warm Celebration of 4 Decades of International and Danish Folk Roots Music in Tønder
Welcome to the 41st Tønder Festival Last year’s 40th jubilee was a huge, warm celebration of 4 decades of international and Danish folk roots music in Tønder. It also marked the launch of the Tønder Festival of the future. Hand-made music with roots in folk, country, blues, cajun, world and the rest has seen yet ano- ther massive renaissance these past few years. Tønder Festival has been part of this all the way. The rebuilding of the festival is a process that began in 2012, and 2015 sees the topping out. This year’s music programme reflects today’s genre-crossing artists, the bearers of the strong traditions and new, young names. International giants in the veteran class side by side with the top musicians of the future. This year again, Tønder Festival’s audiences will find a festival site alive with many different mu- sic venues, special thematic zones and a wide selection of restaurants, cafés and sales booths. Four days’ immersion in a unique festival atmosphere with its well-defined identity and audiences who love the music and the vibe. 2014 was also the year when the conductor’s baton changed hands. Tønder Festival’s artistic director Carsten Panduro retired and the new management took over. The new management team inherited a festival that turned loss to profit in 2014, a festival with huge and growing local and regional backing and enormous media attention. There have been digital changes, too. Tønder Festival has a new website and an intensified pre- sence on social media. Tønder Festival has as its main priority, as always, and more than ever, active contact with old and new audience members, those who buy wrist bands to participate in our unique, close fellowship centred on acoustic music of the highest calibre.

Theatre Raymond Kabbaz Presents Canadian Folk Music with Yves Lambert Trio for St
For Immediate Release February 1, 2017 Theatre Raymond Kabbaz Presents Canadian Folk Music with Yves Lambert Trio for St. Patrick Day On Friday, March 17, 2017 at 7:30pm LOS ANGELES, CA – Theatre Raymond Kabbaz (TRK), the performance space at Le Lycée Français de Los Angeles, is pleased to present Quebec-based Yves Lambert Trio, on March 17, 2017 to celebrate St. Patrick Day and the month of the Francophonie (French Language). With three nationally acclaimed albums behind them, the Yves Lambert Trio offers a personal and creative interpretation of traditional Quebecois repertoire, with bubbling prowess and ingenuity, that on stage is a personal, touching and memorable musical experience. The Yves Lambert Trio brilliantly demonstrates how traditional local music continually reinvents itself within a modern context. Quebec's distinct musical style developed over four centuries around the kitchen hearths and in the dance halls of the province. Descendants of the early French immigrants passed down French songs and stories, slowly incorporating influences from their Irish and Scots neighbors to create a uniquely Quebecois musical culture. Yves Lambert is one of the founding members and an emblematic figure of La Bottine souriante! He has played with the band for 26 years. In January 2003, he went searching for new musical adventures, surrounding himself with young talent, and then founded the Yves Lambert Trio in 2010: Yves Lambert (vocals, accordions, harmonica, jaw harp, and percussion), Olivier Rondeau (acoustic and electric guitars, banjo, and vocals) and Tommy Gauthier (violin, mandolin, guitar, vocals, and feet tapping). The trio gives new life to the forgotten or undiscovered gems of Quebec's rich musical heritage.
