Stone - A tribute to Plamondon (album)

Trois-Rivières, May 1st, 2018 – Quebec’s public was waiting for it: the album Stone from Cirque du Soleil's Tribute Series to Plamondon will be available on May 18th. This opus is a complete and modern reinterpretation of 15 essential songs from the repertoire of the iconic lyricist, reinterpreted by 14 female performers well established on the Quebec and international scene. The show Stone - Tribute to Plamondon was born in 2017, as part of the Cirque du Soleil Tribute Series, presented at the Cogeco Amphitheatre of Trois-Rivières for 4 years and under the creative direction of 45 DEGREES. The first two extracts, Le monde est Stone, by Beyries and Oxygène, by Betty Bonifassi, are available on radios starting today.
