Thanks to the kindness of Orchestre symphonique de Qu\u00e9bec<\/a> (OSQ) and Britta Kr\u00f6ger from Maison Simons, 35 young individuals from the Portage residential<\/a> and social reintegration<\/a> programs in Saint-Malachie had the opportunity to attend a concert by the Quebec Symphony Orchestra at the Grand Th\u00e9\u00e2tre de Qu\u00e9bec<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Directed by Japanese Maestra Nodoka Okisawa<\/a>, the orchestra performed Dvorak’s famous Symphony No. 9, known as the “New World Symphony.” This musical piece was inspired by Native chants, and the finale expresses the longing to conquer a vast and free world.<\/p>\n

At the ripe age of discovery, our young vulnerable clientele thoroughly enjoyed this cultural excursion, which introduced them to a music genre seldom listened to by their generation. All participants were thrilled to go backstage during intermission. One of them even played briefly on the famous Steinway & Sons<\/a> grand piano, impressing everyone with his talent.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the OSQ and Mrs. Kr\u00f6ger for igniting a sense of joy in the lives of these young people who hope for a better future.<\/p>\n\t
