Marjolaine Morasse & Élie Dupuis At Parc St-Mark

The pandemic rolls on, but luckily there is still some live music taking place out there.  Every Sunday during the month of September, Marjolaine Morasse and Élie Dupuis have been putting on some open air concerts in local parks, with some added promotion from Longueuil Est Culture.  They've titled the show 'Les Pianos Rassembleurs' in an effort to bring people closer together, though still socially distanced, and have a good time.  Together, they played a selection of their own songs and a couple of covers to a very appreciative Longueuil crowd.  I think the best way to describe the show would be to use their own words.  It's two friends around a piano mixing their musical universes to provide a unique open air moment.  The first photograph was taken at f/4, 1/320sec ISO 100 at 200mm.  Here are several more photographs of the performance.

The sun was shining, the temperature wasn't overly warm and even The Heir Apparent was swinging and swaying in the distant grass.  I miss being able to get right up next to the stage to shoot these shows, but that's why telephoto lenses were created.  Have to keep a safe distance.  You can follow the links to find out more about Marjolaine Morasse and Élie Dupuis and their music.  If you live around Longueuil, don't forget to check out the Longueuil Est Culture site for some interesting events.  You might come across Your Friendly Neighbourhood Photographer at one of them some day.
