Key of Largo
Just got back to town from a visit to Quebec City. We had a fabulous time being tourists dans la Vieux-Québec and single-handedly ate our way through a mountain of croissants and cafe-au-laits. Although we had to concentrate to understand many of the conversations, we ran across a conversation that was pretty easy on our Jazzette ears - Largo-Resto Club. The owner, Gino Ste-Marie, engaged us the minute we walked in the door. Gino is the brains behind the Festival du Jazz taking place this month in Quebec City. We spent a delightful couple of sets listening to the piano-sax duo of Martin Desjardins et Vincent Gagnon, drinking un peu du vin, and chatting about some of the great talent coming this month to Largo-Resto including one of Cynthia’s heros, Mark Murphy. Thanks for a fabulous evening, Gino. We’ll be sure to visit again soon.
