Le Chemin De Noel / Various - Le Chemin De Noel / Various - Music CD

For Bernard Labadie, "Le Chemin de Nol" is the realization of a great dream inspired by the tradition of the annual Christmas concerts at the Chapel of King's College in Cambridge, England. Named after the beloved annual concerts that Labadie has conducted in Quebec since 2016, "Le Chemin de Noel" is the conductor's deeply personal reflection on the meaning on Christmas. This musical, spiritual, and poetic itinerary unfolds through traditional Nativity hymns that Labadie has carefully selected over the years. The sacred and secular repertoire is sung by La Chapelle de Qubec, with the participation of contralto Marie-Nicole Lemieux, harpist Valrie Milot, and organist Richard Par. The program also includes the canticle Mais o sont les neiges?, a creation by Franois Dompierre on a text by Denys Arcand.
