LE CHOEUR DES JEUNES DE LAVAL
Founded in the fall of 2012, Le Chœur des Jeunes de Laval is a mixed-voice vocal ensemble of about fifty members, composed exclusively of college and university choristers graduated from Les Petits Chanteurs de Laval and Les Voix Boréales.
This training, by its spirit, its objectives and its pace of learning responds to the desire of the young people who compose it to continue to rub shoulders while pursuing together what they have been doing with so much happiness and talent since the age of 9. or 10 years: sing!
In concert with Les Petits Chanteurs de Laval and Les Voix Boréales, the choir won the jury's favorite prize in the Chantez pour Sainte-Justine with Céline Dion competition in 2014 and had the chance to accompany the international star in July 2014. at the Maison symphonique. The Choeur des Jeunes de Laval had the privilege of singing twice with the legendary group The Rolling Stones: at the Bell Center in June 2013 as part of their 50th anniversary tour and in July 2015 on the Plains of Abraham during the Festival Quebec summer. The choristers also took part in the Fête nationale du Québec shows in Laval in June 2016 and 2017 with, among others, Richard Séguin, Patrick Watson, Ariane Moffatt, Louis-Jean Cormier and Marie-Pierre Arthur. The Choeur des Jeunes de Laval also collaborates with various symphony orchestras. In August 2017, the choristers had the privilege of participating in Montréal Symphonique, a key event of the festivities for Montréal's 375th anniversary. This great outdoor concert, presented in front of a crowd of more than 80,000 people, brought together the three largest orchestras in the city: the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal, the Orchestre Métropolitain, the McGill Symphony Orchestra and 20 artists from fame including Rufus and Martha Wainwright, Pierre Lapointe, Diane Dufresne, Daniel Bélanger, Patrick Watson and DJ Champion.
