Yannick Nézet-Séguin will lead the Orchestre Métropolitain on May 17, 2017 at the Bell Center as part of the 375th anniversary of the founding of Montreal.
"We are talking about the 375th anniversary of Montreal for a long time, but oddly enough, except for the illumination of the Jacques Cartier Bridge, no events were on the program to mark the date of its founding by Paul de Chomedey and Jeanne Mance on 17 May 1642.
