The Lamèque International Baroque Music Festival grew from the seed of a harpsichord recital in 1971. By 1975 it was firmly rooted, staging its first concert in July 1976. Founded by harpsichordist Mathieu Duguay, it has attracted thousands of music lovers to the picturesque island, delighting them with early music performed in the exceptional acoustics of the colourful Sainte-Cécile church in Petite-Rivière-de-l'Île. It is unique in Canada for its dedication to music from the period 1600-1760, presenting outstanding performances on period instruments (or replicas.) Its programs include vocal and instrumental selections, featuring choral works, chamber music and solo pieces. 1, record 1, English, - Lam%C3%A8que%20International%20Baroque%20Music%20Festival

Le Festival international de musique baroque de Lamèque est une société de concert vouée à la diffusion de la musique ancienne au Nouveau-Brunswick. Fondé en 1976 par le claveciniste Mathieu Duguay, le Festival jouit désormais d'une réputation enviable, d'où son immense succès auprès du public mélomane. Il présente la plupart de ses concerts dans le cadre acoustique de la pittoresque église Sainte-Cécile de Petite-Rivière-de-l'Île sur l'île de Lamèque. Chef de file au Canada, ce festival a su préserver son originalité et sa fidélité aux pratiques d'exécution et d'interprétations historiques (1600-1760). À chaque saison, on y présente des concerts sur instruments d'époque ou copies conformes, en formations chour et orchestre, musique de chambre ou solistes de renom. 1, record 1, French, - Festival%20international%20de%20musique%20baroque%20de%20Lam%C3%A8que
