Flutist Marie-Véronique Bourque and guitarist Christine Tassan are two artists who stand out for their impressive solo careers, both in Canada and internationally. In 2018, their paths crossed thanks to a mutual friend, Michel Lalonde. Since then, they have performed together on multiple occasions, either as a duo or with various groups. In May 2023, they decide to join forces in a new project inspired by the natural sounds of Quebec and Saskatchewan, where Christine and Marie-Véronique reside, respectively. The album Bruissement boréal came to life and will be released May 9, 2025.
Discover a first single from the album: Bruissements, composed by Christine Tassan, is inspired by the rustling of beech leaves stirred by the autumn wind. It evokes the sound of brushes on the snare drum and gave Christine the idea to compose this piece with a frenetic rhythm and Latin accents, highlighting the virtuosity of the guitarist and the flutist.
