The 20th Dinner concert in Dunham, an evening dedicated to the vocal arts, will be held on Saturday, August 3, at the Ferme le Campanile. This highly anticipated event will benefit the Montreal International Musical Competition (MIMC),  an internationally renowned competition created in 2002 which aims to highlight the world’s best young pianists, violinists and singers.

This one-of-a-kind concert has become an annual tradition that brings together, in a bucolic setting, more than 500 guests every year, among which many personalities from the business, arts and politics spheres. This year’s concert will feature top-calibre musical artists with the theme of Dunham and its divas!: contralto Marie-Nicole Lemieux, sopranos Natalie Choquette, Chantal Dionne, Marie-Josée Lord and Marie-Ève Munger, bass-baritone Philippe Sly and baritone Patrick Mallette will join their voice to the festivities.

Following a cocktail at 5 p.m. and a country summer supper at 7 p.m., the musical menu, which will begin at 8:30 p.m. will be composed of excerpts from major operas. The Orchestre de la Francophonie, conducted by Jean-Philippe Tremblay, will accompany the soloists, and journalist Marie-Claude Lavallée will host this exciting evening.

You cannot attend the event but would like to contribute to its success? It is possible to make a donation to the Foundation. A receipt for tax purposes will be issued in an amount equivalent to the donation.
