Va-et-vient

Va-et-vient is pleased to be invited to perform again on beautiful Isle La Motte on northern Lake Champlain.   The Isle La Motte Preservation Trust, which owns and manages two nature and fossil preserves on Isle La Motte, has renovated an old dairy barn (now the "Conservation Barn") on the 83 acre Goodsell Ridge Preserve, and many arts events are moving from Fisk Farm to the preserve.   The acoustics of the renovated barn will contribute to an unforgettable evening.

Nous sommes bien contentes de retourner jouer en concert dans la belle église au centre du village Les Écureils sur le côté est de Donnacona.  Venez chanter avec vos voisines vermontoises.   Claude Martel prépare un superbe souper de pâtes avant le show, et on a hâte de se retrouver dans cette communauté chaleureuse.  Les billets sont disponibles à la porte, $10 pour le souper, et $10 pour le spectacle.   Friends, come enjoy a delicious pasta supper before the sonorous melodies of Va-et-vient during this lively soirée in a warm and welcoming village!  Tickets are available at the door, Read More

We return again for Saint Johnsbury's wonderful New Year's Eve celebration – the warmth of the audiences more than compensates for the cold outside!  Va-et-vient will perform two sets, at 5:00 & 7:00 pm at the Universalist Unitarian Congregation on 47 Cherry St., to sing good-bye to 2019 in St. Johnsbury.  Performers at sixteen venues around the city will help you ring out the old and ring in the new in this alcohol-free city-wide festival!
