SIXTRUM PERCUSSION

AN UNBRIDLED EXPLORATION OF CONTEMPORARY PERCUSSION

Formed by multi-talented virtuosos, Sixtrum is constantly renewing its universe by confronting other disciplines and artistic genres. Each of the group’s collaborations aims to find new forms of expression and original ways to reach the public. The objective: to transform our relationship with music.

Upcoming concert

L’archipel aux mille sons

A performance presented as part of Val-David’s 1001 Patentes qui bougent Festival.

Three percussionists stop at each of these imaginary islands to introduce audiences to music that is by turns intimate and exuberant, drifting from one to the next on musical themes inspired by water and wind.
Poetic, inventive, and festive, this show—specially designed for young children—is a gateway to the incredible richness of contemporary percussion and an invitation to journey into Sixtrum’s musical imagination.

July 18th, 11am, 1pm, 3pm

Pavillon Maurie-Ponty, Val-David
