A Breath of Fresh Air With the “Les joyeux retraités” Choir

The “Les joyeux retraités” (The Joyful Retirees) choir was in high spirits when it performed in the chapel of Maison Jésus-Marie (MJM) on April 21. The audience as well as the choir members enjoyed themselves.

A succession of songs inviting everyone to clap their hands and sing along, combined, at times with amusing staging, gave the concert a lively rhythm, chasing away the springtime gloom.

Once again, this choir, renowned for bringing a breath of gaiety and pleasure, has successfully fulfilled its mission. Since its creation in 1990, this choir from the association “Les joyeux retraités de Longueuil” has lived up to its reputation, concert after concert. This musical performance at MJM was under the direction of Ms. Lise Pelletier. The choir was accompanied on piano by Hélène Carrière.

After the show, the audience went back to their duties with a smile on their faces, humming along to some of the tunes sung by the choir.
