Jean-Michel Blais live in Drummondville

Experience Jean-Michel Blais live on February 10th

Jean-Michel Blais will perform at Maison des arts Desjardins Drummondville on February 10, 2027. Blais is a Canadian composer and pianist known for his contemporary classical music, often described as minimalist and atmospheric. His compositions frequently feature prepared piano – modifying the instrument with objects placed on or between the strings to alter its sound – alongside electronic elements and subtle processing. Blais’s work explores themes of memory, nostalgia, and the emotional resonance of soundscapes, gaining recognition for albums like *il*, *distance*, and *codes*. He received a Polaris Music Prize in 2016 for *Dans ma main*.

Maison des arts Desjardins Drummondville serves as a regional cultural hub within the Centre-du-Québec region of Quebec. Opened in 2014, the facility houses a 350-seat performance hall, visual art exhibition spaces, and various workshop areas dedicated to artistic practice. It functions as a multidisciplinary venue hosting performances spanning music, theatre, dance, and visual arts. The building itself is notable for its modern architectural design and commitment to accessibility for artists and audiences alike.
