Under the direction of Claude Giguère and Jay Knutson, the 25 young members of the North Shore Celtic Ensemble deliver a whole new, “no boundaries” kind of musical experience. The group began, in 1999, with a Celtic-focused repertoire, but the fiddlers, woodwind players and percussionists now play an exciting, wide-ranging and genre-spanning music that includes folk, jazz, classical and more. Not only a musical jewel on the local scene, The Ensemble has toured Canada and abroad, sharing some great music and their message of empowering youth and using music to engage and connect with communities, to live well, and to make a positive difference.
