Jean Derome, Guy Pelletier and Julien Grégoire will be closing the Évolutions concert series, this year dedicated to the flute, on Saturday October 25, 2008 at the Château Ramzey in Old Montréal. If you feel like hearing Derome earlier that afternoon, he will also be performing in duo alongside sound sculptures by Lyne Lapointe at the Galerie SBC. It’s a rare opportunity for fans to see Derome perform twice in one day!
