Mundial Montreal, a new world music conference and festival, begins tomorrow, November 15th, in Montreal, Canada. The gathering celebrates Canada’s rich cultural diversity through a variety of performances. Organizers have created an unprecedented community network of partners and presenters from across the country with a common goal: to develop touring opportunities nationally, and beyond.
Montreal is one of the most important and active world music markets in North America. Some of the most influential and invested organizers in the field will come together to discuss where things stand over 20 years into the evolution of the world music “brand”.
