Celtic Harmonies International Festival - Eastern Townships, Quebec, 1-9 October 2011

Please check out the amazing lineup of 17 artists (en francais) for the the Celtic Harmonies International Festival, 1-9 October, 2011. The festival is held in a variety of locations within the the Eastern townships of Quebec (Lac-Brome/Knowlton, Cowansville, Waterloo, North Hatley). The Festival includes concerts, workshops, masterclasses, and a marketplace. The festival website is very well presented, the musical lineup is spectacular (includes Ottawa's Scottish Cathy-Ann MacPhee), and festival locations are beautiful. The website describes not only the festival details, but the entire philosophy behind the festival setting in the Townships, and also the festival's history, originating from the Montreal International Celtic Festival. You owe it to yourself to check out this website, and then if at all possible, to go to the festival!
