Molly
et la Belle Province!
Molly just returned from a quick but joyful tour
of Quebec this January. She was overwhelmed by the beauty
of land and the warmth of the people. Montreal is grand -but
Joliette, Laval, Longueuil, St. Jean sur Richelieu and Sherbrooke
were really something special. Molly would like to thank everyone
who came out and made her visit such a great experience. Much
like what she has found to be true in France- music really
is the language that speaks to every heart. Molly hopes to
return again soon.

Canadian Wagnerian superstar, tenor Ben Heppner,
who performed Christmas classics, gospel numbers, and of course

Outside".
