Genticorum

Genticorum is an energetic and original Quebecois traditional music trio.Well rooted in the music of their native province, the band also incorporates the dynamism of today’s North American and European

folk cultures.The albums “Malins Plaisirs” (Roues et Archets, 2005)

and “Le Galarneau” (Vizou, 2002) offer a blend of traditional songs

and tunes as well as original compositions.Weaving wooden flute,

fiddle, acoustic guitar, jaw harp, bass, foot percussion and strong vocal

harmony, the trio produces a tapestry of musical textures giving them

their distinctive sound. Since their debut in 2000, Genticorum has

forged a solid place for itself in the folk festival circuit, concert halls

and dances throughout Canada and the United States.



“The music of Quebec may well be the up-and-coming genre in North American music…distinctive…with a wonderful rhythmic flare propelled, quite literally, by dancing feet. For a three piece, Genticorum makes a very full and glorious noise, both instrumentally and vocally…a compelling sound…This is a band that’s going to go places.”SING OUT! 2005
