2018 Honens Festival: Storytellers

September 3, 2018 @ 10:00 am

| Free

Join us for the world premiere of the newly commissioned arrangement of The Hockey Sweater!

In the days of Roch’s childhood, winters in the village of Ste. Justine were long. Life centered around school, church, and the hockey rink, and every boy’s hero was Montreal Canadiens hockey legend Maurice Richard. Everyone wore Richard’s number 9. They laced their skates like Richard. They even wore their hair like Richard. When Roch outgrows his cherished Canadiens sweater, his mother writes away for a new one. Much to Roch’s horror, he is sent the blue and white sweater of the rival Toronto Maple Leafs, dreaded and hated foes to his beloved team. How can Roch face the other kids at the rink?

Storytellers concerts are for the whole family. They feature popular children’s stories set to music and encourage kids to read while exposing them to classical music—often for the first time.
