Elisapie at sunrise 2019

ELISAPIE IN CONCERT AT THE SUNRISE AT THE FESTIVAL MUSIQUE DU BOUT DU MONDE

 

Gasps, on 30 November 2018 - Musique du Bout du Monde is proud to announce Elisapie Isaac in a sunrise concert at Cap Bon-Ami in Forillon National Park on August 11, 2019 at 4:45 am. The talented singer-songwriter from Salluit will honor us with an early morning performance for an event considered by many to be a must-see in the programming of the Musique du Bout du Monde Festival presented by Loto-Québec. This event promises to be full of magic and emotion.

 

Elisapie Isaac

An ambassador of Inuit culture, Elisapie represents the beauty of the Great North. In the three languages of her identity, Inuktitut, English and French, Elisapie will introduce us to the melodies of her new album The Ballad of the Runaway Girl, a striking, contrasting and vibrant work resulting from a return to the source of her Inuit origins in a well-inhabited folk. Her music reflects a fascinating personal journey and a tender look at her people, shining a light on a few classics of Aboriginal musical culture.

It is with pride that the president of Musique du Bout du Monde, Sophie Bourdages, announced the arrival of Elisapie to the volunteers gathered at the Micmac Nation Hall in Gespeg to celebrate their 15 years of involvement. "The participation of Elisapie in our sunrise show is a great source of joy for me. As 2019 has been declared by UNESCO the International Year of Indigenous Languages, it will be our nod to the indigenous languages that the artist will represent with her Inuit songs."

There is no doubt that Elisapie's performance will blend perfectly with the wild and grandiose scenery of Cap-Bon-Ami and the splendor of the first rays of light on the sea. For the past eight years, 700 spectators have gathered at sunrise in an impressive silence to attend an extraordinary outdoor concert where the voice of an artist, accompanied at most by an instrument, majestically complements this natural heritage.
