Marie-Pierre Arthur brings an intimate, close-knit concert experience to the Grande Salle of Salle Pauline-Julien, built around the concept of nearness โ between performers and audience, between voices and ears. The evening favours softness and connection, spotlighting both her best-known songs and rarer pieces from her catalogue.
The show features an ensemble of exceptional performers: Naomie Delorimier (N Nao), รmilie Pompa (Em Pompa), and Raphaรซl Pรฉpin-Tanguay (Velours Velours) add colour and refinement to the vocal arrangements, while Franรงois Lafontaine accompanies on piano and Joe Grass on guitar.
Together, the group โ billed as the Ensemble doux โ revisits, rearranges, and reimagines Arthur's repertoire in a format designed to highlight the essence and emotional power of each song. The result is described as beautiful, essential, and a testament to the strength of gentleness.
