Beautiful Music NOW – June 6, 2023

The Chapelle Historique du Bon-Pasteur is one of Montréal’s most beloved concert halls, and home to fine musical instruments including a Fazioli concert grand piano and a 1772 Kirckman harpsichord. The former monastery was built in the 19th century and restored in 1985. A little over a week ago, the historic site was ravaged by fire, injuring at least two people and leaving numerous people without their homes. You can read more about the building’s history and this tragic fire using the links below. And today’s Beautiful music is a concert from Chapelle Historique du Bon-Pasteur of Claude Bolling’s Suite for Cello and Jazz Piano Trio. The performers are cellist Sahara von Hattenberger, pianist Mayu Funaba, bassist Adrian Vedady, and drummer Jim Doxas.
