The Festival of Eurochestries in Quebec is the first one to be organized outside the European continent. It has joined our network in 2010.
This festival arose from the initiative of Laurent Breton, conductor of the Waterfalls of Beauport, in Quebec. Having attended the Festival in Charente-Maritime, he created the Eurochestries association in Quebec so much the welcome and the project of Eurochestries interested him...
This Festival takes place mainly in the City of Quebec, with the partnership of prestigious Montcalm palace which will welcome the opening and closing concerts.
About fifteen concerts will be organized during the week of Festival.
Following the example of other festivals of our network, these meetings of young instruments will meet during a week, at the same time to play their own directory during about fifteen concerts, but also to work together common works intended to be played during the closing concerts by this " international full orchestra " created for the occasion.
The festival will welcome in 2011 7 orchestras and quintett that is approximately 300 musicians.
