Les Rythmes d'été : Barnev Valsaint

BARNEV, a musical artist since 1993, debuted with Dubmatique's iconic chorus Soul pleureur in 1997. He co-founded the R&B trio NoDéjà, making his mark with Quelque chose about you. In 1999, he joined Céline Dion's team as a backing vocalist, and has continued to collaborate with her ever since. Over the years, BARNEV has worked with a variety of artists, creating a dynamic album mixing funky hip-hop and pop in French, celebrating the golden age of funk and soul. The recording involved talented songwriters and musicians, with sessions in a chalet north of Montreal to find inspiration. The result, directed by BARNEV, is an album rich in grooves, soulful melodies and vocal arrangements.

The show begins at 7 p.m., and will be preceded by a series of in situ and ambulatory live arts performances.
