Dear music-loving friends,<\/p>\n
In the light of the last announcements made by our governments to help stop the spread of COVID-19, we are forced to cut current season short<\/u>. The benefit concert planned for June 9 and the Acad\u00e9mie de musique ancienne de Saint-Camille<\/a>, from June 12 to 14, are both cancelled, in addition to all our April concerts.<\/p>\n All dissemination activities that were to happen before August 31, including Le Conseil des arts de Montr\u00e9al en tourn\u00e9e pr\u00e9sente Nicandro e Fileno<\/em>, are also cancelled.<\/p>\n We would like to reiterate our support to the government as well as to the citizens in this fight against the virus. We stand wholeheartedly behind those who fight on a daily basis and those who are affected by this crisis.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We are currently considering various rescheduling scenarios concerning our 2020-2021 season. The concert Pi\u00e8ces de clavecin en concerts<\/a> will likely be cancelled, while the Les Quatre Messes br\u00e8ves de J.S. Bach<\/a> will postponed.<\/p>\n We are hard at work in order to present to you a rich and varied 2020-2021 season comprised of four concerts. You can rest assured that we will compensate our musicians and contributors fairly, no matter the situation.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In order to simplify ticketing management, we offer to refund the unused tickets of the seasonal passport to all our subscribers. You also have the option to make your purchase a donation, if that is your wish.<\/p>\n We will call all our subscribers in the upcoming weeks to discuss which option best suit your needs.<\/p>\n We will also contact all our individual ticket-holders for the April concerts.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Francis Colpron has also started to concoct you some little split-screen baroque hors-d\u2019\u0153uvres<\/em>, in order to add a little musical brightness to your quarantine. <\/em>You can view them all on our website<\/a>.<\/p>\n If you have any questions, you can communicate your concerns via email at info@boreades.com<\/a>, or by calling the following number: (514) 634-1244.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In solidarity,<\/p>\n Francis ColpronPostponed or cancelled?<\/h5>\n

From our living room to yours!<\/h5>\n
