Archives | Concert Series Musique, horizons lointains

August 31, 2022, 6 p.m. | Saint-Enfant-Jésus Church of Mile-End

Archives is the new project of multi-instrumentalist and composer Cédric Dind-Lavoie, a show that marries folklore archives with ambient and introspective music. The musician reclaims old treasures found through a selection of Québec songs and instrumental tunes from the 1940's and 1950's, drawn from the collections of folklorists Simonne Voyer, Roger Matton and Luc Lacourcière. He is supported on stage by the fiddler Dâvi Simard turned, towards sound exploration and who brings as well a strong anchoring in the traditional codes. Together, they form a trio with the archive station which plays relics of the past in real-time, operated directly on reel or vinyl. It is as if the two musicians had been able to slip through the cracks of time to meet these voices and their stories to accompany them.
