Genticorum’s second album, Malins Plaisirs, released in Canada in 2005, won in the Best Ensemble category at the Canadian Folk Music Awards. The trio’s third album, La Bibournoise, was released in Canada in April 2008 to critical acclaim. This work builds on Genticorum’s trademark sound, combining rollicking interpretations of Quebec folk songs with original instrumentals written in the traditional style.
