SUMMARY:Cordes au vent Duo - Classical Music Concert
DESCRIPTION:May 3 to May 9\nCordes au vent Duo – Classical Music Concert \nPhysical distancing will not keep us from enjoying musical delights! The Cordes au vent duo offers you an online concert\, available online for exactly one week\, to watch at your leisure! \nThe concert link will be available between May 3rd and May 9th HERE. \nLike a breeze resonating through the tendrils of a weeping willow\, the flute and guitar have been paired by composers over the centuries to explore the complicity of two very different instruments.

SUMMARY:From "Grab-and-Go" to Amateur Sommelier
DESCRIPTION:Ever peruse the aisles of the SAQ looking to try something new but end up buying the same wine you always buy? Have you ever wished you could express your wine tastes better to help you choose? At this activity\, we will watch a series of video lectures to learn how to trust and communicate our own taste and aroma preferences. Our professor will guide us through the technical jargon of wineselection to get us on the path to sounding like expert sommeliers. \nWe can’t venture out to the Ile d’Orleans this year for a proper wine tasting but perhaps a virtual course will help us prep for future excursions. \nRegistration for this event is required. Click HERE to register. This event is free. No dues are required. \nDo you have a question\, concern or having difficulty registering? Email Meghan at info@lifelonglearningquebec.org
