“Festival International de Jazz de Montréal ” – June 26 – July 6, 2008
I’ve always liked Montreal, Canada. Beautiful and graceful, this city always seems to have something going on – regardless of the weather. ( Montreal has finessed the whole concept of “underground” shopping.)
The festival has an eclectic musical mix planned, including:
“Return to Forever” with Chick Corea and Stanly Clarke, Aretha Franklin, Leonard Cohen , Omara Portuondo, (you might know her if you saw the documentary, “ Buena Vista Social Club” she sang a duet with the late Cuban crooner, Ibrahim Ferrer), and, lots of others. There is still time to make a plan!
