When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.Un grand merci à notre merveilleux public d'être venu assister à notre concert de vendredi ! C'était le point d'orgue d'une journée entière consacrée au "Phénix du Mexique", Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz (XVIIe siècle). Un grand merci à l'Université Concordia et en particulier à Bradley Nelson pour leur contribution : la journée a débuté par un séminaire en ligne (avec Prof. Nelson et Jennifer Faucher) et, plus tard, par une conférence pré-concert donnée par le musicologue John Lazos sur cette figure importante de la littérature espagnole et mexicaine. Et enfin, merci à nos merveilleux artistes invités (Esteban La Rotta, Marie-Laurence Primeau, Nick Capozzoli, Miguel Medina, Géraldine Eguiluz) et à nos talentueuses chanteuses (Élodie Bouchard, Josée Lalonde, Luce Chamberland,Geneviève Gates-Panneton, Carole LeDez, Angèle Trudeau, Elizabeth Ekholm, Rebecca Bain, Cynthia Gates). Vous avez tous et toutes été sublimes. Sor Juana Inés était sans doute aussi avec nous, et nous la remercions pour son immense contribution au monde, aux arts, pour sa promotion dévouée de l'accès des femmes à l'éducation, et pour son travail de soins aux malades pendant une épidémie!

Many thanks to our wonderful audience for coming to see our concert on Friday! It was the crowning jewel of an entire day dedicated to the "Phoenix of Mexico", 17th-century Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz. Many thanks to Concordia University and especially to Bradley Nelson for their contributions: the day began with an online discussion and later, a pre-concert conference given by musicologist John Lazos on this important figure of Spanish and Mexican literature. And finally thanks to our wonderful guest artists and to our talented singers. You were all sublime. Sor Juana Inés was no doubt with us too, and we thank her for her immense contribution to the world, to the arts, for her dedicated promotion of women's access to education, and for her work caring for the sick during an epidemic.
