Friends of the Festival
who will attend this concert:
Lissa Albert
from Dollard-des-Ormeaux
will attend this concert:
I first "discovered" Bobby McFerrin back when he was pre-"Don't Worry Be Happy"...a unique artist who took my breath away. I bought "Spontaneous Inventions", and then everything else he had recorded. I got to see him in Burlington, Vermont, and then here in Montreal. The night I was supposed to see him perform in 1993 at the Jazz Fest, I was admitted to the hospital to have my firstborn son. I gave the tickets to some dear friends who continue to thank me for introducing them to his music. Bobby is a force of energy, spirituality, and music that cannot be described, only experienced. This year, I will see him again, and am taking my 13-year-old son, a musician in his high school band on percussion and clarinet. I try to take him to at least 1 concert at the Festival a year..and this year I know will be a superb experience. I can't wait!
