Made possible in part by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts, which believes that a great nation deserves great art.

Le Vent du Nord (literally, "wind from the north") has blown us away before, and we're thrilled to have them again! Don't miss it!

"Le Vent has enough virtuosity and spirit to make its four musicians sound like 40 at times, and it tackles Scot, Irish or French material with equal authority. With its offhandedly great musicianship (and where else can you hear a hurdy-gurdy these days?), it's a blast to hear this wind blow." — Kevin R. Convey, Boston Herald

"...it's a wild ride through the energy of French-Canadian music, with just enough of the quieter side of things to catch your breath and prepare you for the next round of flying fiddle notes, hurdy-gurdy circles, and stories in song." — Kerry Dexter, Dirty Linen
