About Orgue et couleurs

Orgue et couleurs offers different events throughout the year with the pipe organ at centre stage. The Fall Festival, its main event since 1999, has brought to Montreal artists from around the world. Eager to push the pipe organ to its limits and the public towards new heights of enchantment, the Festival proposes audacious matches of the instrument with different art forms such as dance, theatre or even visual arts.

In order to create new venues for organists and their repertoires, several activities are organized such as Orgues ouvertes, Nuit d'enfer.

Orgue et couleurs organizes in collaboration with the city of Montreal, a summer series of symphonic concerts with Concerts populaires de Montréal.
