Au bistro des découvertes ! #1
Not all great talents are great stars. Discovering them, despite their relative obscurity, is a keenly felt pleasure. We gain an appreciation for our environment, capable of offering such beautiful presences. We share the thrill of a brand-new performance. We experience a moment of beautiful guidance that wants to do good, just by forging a link.
It’s in this spirit that La Slague invites you to “Au bistro des découvertes“. This intimate concert series is carefully curated, with new talent personally recommended by seasoned French Ontario artists. Our old hands on the music scene are well placed to make good musical acquaintances, and like us, the stars love to share their finds with their friends. So be one of their friends!
Au Bistro des Découvertes, you’ll come for the good atmosphere, the good food, the good music, the good company, all under the guidance of the evening’s artist godparents, to create an intimate and convivial evening with their protégés.
An initiative of La Slague, under the artistic direction of Dan Bédard.
Melissa Schaak presents…
This impressive violinist from Dowling studied music on both sides of the Atlantic. She then embarked on a career that took her to the four corners of the globe, both in the classical sphere and with international pop greats. Now back at home, she is the second concertmaster of the Sudbury Symphony Orchestra, while pursuing her rock-classical fusion project 2V+. Tonight, Mélissa introduces us to another great talent… her brother!

Over the years, he has mastered a wide range of instruments, played every genre from classical to punk, and developed solid recording expertise. With so many strings to his bow, which ones will he rock tonight?
