Artistic Director Christian Gallant was set to announce his programming for the Mont-Carmel Summer Concert Series 2020 back in March. But then COVID-19 hit, and, suddenly, all plans changed as our life and our summer immediately turned uncertain. “Initially, we held back making any decisions because we weren’t sure whether or not we would be able to put on our annual concert series and what that might look like if we did,” says Gallant. “We had to consider the world in which we are living now. When we decided to go online, we had to carefully choose our artists in order to ensure that those selected could pull off what we had envisioned.”
