Montreal Jazzfest - June27 to July5





Returning from Paris to Montreal is even more delightful when Jazzfest ramps up immediately upon one's arrival.



And when you can Jazzfest with some of the best practitioners of the fine art of festivalling, Trevor and Sonia, it becomes downright wonderful.



It seems everyone got into the act. Even the Chinatown brass band was jazzy!




Felicity and I kicked off Jazzfest with the gala opening concert of Wynton Marsalis, now a living legend.


Trevor and Sonia then jumped into action, joining me on nightly wanderings stage to stage, cocktail to cocktail, performer to performer.




There were acrobats.



And clowns.





A very fetching lobster showed an inordinate and much appreciated interest in your humble author!



Montreal Jazz fest. What a great time in such a great city!


And what a great party!
