The OSM to the Hip-Hop beat

Unbridled, committed texts, emphatic lyrics, hip-hop or R’n’B rhythms, the whole set to a symphonic backdrop: everything to stimulate your curiosity! The Maison symphonique will come alive to the sounds of hip-hop groups Dead Obies and Alaclair Ensemble, and rap masters Koriass, Sarahmée, Calamine (Révélation Radio-Canada 2021) and FouKi accompanied by partner QuietMike. All these Quebec artists will share the stage with the OSM for a thrilling evening under the energetic direction of Dina Gilbert.
