Bilingual Concert - Chansons De Tradition Orale Francophone: De La Bretagne A La Louisiane

A free, bilingual performance by researcher and musician Jeanne Lemoine

After the crowds of Festival International subside, you may be craving a more intimate musical experience. Join us for this traditional music performance with Jeanne Lemoine, a musician and researcher who has been frequenting our archives for the past few months.

This is a bilingual event, open to all who love French music, language, and culture, and learning about its intersections with Louisiana culture.

Jeanne plays for dances and concerts, as a solo artist, and in the bands Horvâ, Lemoine/Couchoux, Paul Capic & Mama Zurka, and Youpë. She also teaches diatonic accordion and Breton music.

Hailing from the northeastern part of Britanny, Jeanne has been dancing and singing traditional music since she was seven years old.

Accordéoniste et chanteuse, elle joue lors de bals ou concerts, en solo ou en groupe (Horvâ, Lemoine/Couchoux, Paul Capic & Mama Zurka, Youpë) et enseigne actuellement à l'école des Menhirs au Sel-de-Bretagne.

There is limited parking in our Johnston Street lot, and at Martin Hall Circle, across the street from the Roy House. There are Park Mobile lots along University Avenue, which are walking distance from the Roy House.

A free concert, open to the public
