Very special guests will share their songs with Petit Orchestre. We're honored to receive on our stage for that occasion: MARIE-PIERRE ARTHUR and PAUL CARGNELLO. Very Promising!

Just after receiving a Juno nomination (francophone album of the year) and winning the SODEC/RIDEAU European Jury Prize, Caracol will continue her tour throughout the summer all around Quebec. Lots of shows will be announced soon!!!
