Review Highlights from our recent performances with
Orchestre symphonique de Québec
by Richard Boisvert for Le Soleil, November 2007
"Carried by a somehow severe grace that is softened by stunning curves,
Evelyne Benais, founder of the ensemble with guitarist Bob Sutherby, has developed a technique of dance
that is absolutely astounding. Given the precision and quality of the sound of her feet, one can
literally speak of music. Some of the pieces accompanied by the Orchestre symphonique de Québec
were like veritable concertos for heels and points.
"Sean Harris' voice, at once heart-rending and tender, had the
immediate capacity to evoke images of Andalusia…
"Maral Perk's unaffected and moving flamenco interpretation of
Edith Piaf's "La Foule", profoundly touched the audience… She then launched into a
fan dance, which was particularly sensual."
