    Robert, I just checked out your MySpace and listened to your incredibly beautiful music! Where can a poor Canadian lad buy your discs? I tried Amazon.ca but they don't list you. Do you ever come over to the water to play? Your own site says 'chanteur du Quebec', do you play in la belle province? What about the Vancouver Folk Festival? Always a free place to stay for you here.

    Thank You Stuart !
    I almost made it to the Vancouver festival one year... Perhaps one day !
    Nevertheless We love traveling and might just drop by to say hello! (...and finish your peanut butter stash !)

    Robert,
    I too am interested in the traditional music of
    Québec (pre-1750) but have been unable to find anything other than a few discs of religous music. Do know where any could be found?

    Traditional Music

    Hello Ruanaidh,

    Take a look at the songs collected by Marius Barbeau. Some are said to be quite ancient.
    Someone who could help you perhaps is Gilles Plante. He lives in Montreal.
    6324 rue Chambord,

    Hope that helps,

    Robert
