Hors-série 23-24

Le secret de Polichignon

Le secret de Polichignon

Maison symphonique de Montréal

Kent Nagano and Fred Pellerin unite with the OSM to deliver a brand-new Christmas tale: Le secret de Polichignon. It features Méo Bellemare, the town “hair-crafter” of Saint-Élie-de-Caxton, who grooms beards, mustaches and scalp hair. Méo’s privileged access to the townspeople’s capillary needs also keeps him abreast of all their secrets. How will he use this occult knowledge, as someone who wants to save humanity? Join us for this festive evening to found out how the story unfolds.
