Jean-Michel Blais live in Brossard

Experience Jean-Michel Blais live on February 17th

Jean-Michel Blais will perform at Théâtre Manuvie in Brossard, Quebec on February 17, 2027. Blais is a Canadian pianist and composer known for his contemporary classical music, often described as minimalist and deeply emotive. His compositions frequently utilize prepared piano techniques – altering the instrument’s sound by placing objects on or between the strings – alongside electronic effects and looping, creating rich textures and atmospheric soundscapes. He gained significant recognition following his 2016 album *illiturgie*, and has continued to release critically acclaimed works exploring themes of memory, loss, and introspection.

Théâtre Manuvie, located in Brossard, was originally constructed as L'Étoile in 1990. The venue serves as a major performing arts center for the South Shore of Montreal. It underwent a rebranding to Théâtre Manuvie in 2023 following a naming rights agreement with Manuvie Financial Corporation. The theatre boasts a main hall seating approximately 1,900 people and hosts a diverse range of performances including concerts, theatre productions, dance recitals, and comedy shows.
