the opera "Le Jongleur de Notre-Dame" by composer Jules
Massenet Sunday, April 9th 2:00 p.m. in Halifax.

listeners to this upcoming performance will agree that “Le Jongleur de
Notre-Dame” is no exception to Massenet’s talent for memorable
music and affecting theatre. Bass-baritones Gregory Servant and Jon

Scotia chamber choir. Lynette Wahlstrom is pianist, and Walter H. Kemp
conducts. Suzie LeBlanc tackles the male lead role.
