Career (summarized)

Pivotal years

1966 - Its first public recital out of Canada: with Paris

1974 - Foundation of “the Unit Cantabile of Montreal”

Its dynamism and its burning will to contribute very actively to put forward the lyric art in all its forms, encouraged Bruno Laplante to assume, since 1974, the organization and the artistic director of varied lyric spectacles, in which it holds itself a role, which makes it possible to the young people to begin their career well locally and near elder famous, without more awaiting one rare call of a house of opera or a telediffusor.

Thus, in 1974, being surrounded of Celine Dussault, soprano, of Gabrielle Lavigne, mezzo-soprano (which succeeds Paule Verschelden in 1976), and of the tenor Paul Trépanier, the baritone Bruno Laplante founds a vocal ensemble with variable geometry, the Unit Cantabile of Montreal. At the beginning the Unit presents a repertory of extracts of oratorios, operas, cantatas and melodies, for duets, trios and quartets and, a little later by increasing manpower according to the needs, will present complete works: comic operas, operettas and light operas, especially.

the Unit Cantabile of Montreal gives its first representation like vocal quartet, the August 11th 1974 (French, Italian and German program) in the Center of arts of Orford (in Estrie), at the time of the International festival which is held to with it. Radio Canada International (RCI) recorded and offered to the public the sound recording in this inaugural concert.

Bruno Laplante was so far the producer and artistic director of more than 40 lyric works, for more than 800 representations, employing approximately 400 artists (singers, actors, instrumentalists, leaders, directors…), like 150 to 200 creators, technicians and craftsmen, in a single effort in Canada having for goal to renew, at reasonable cost, presentation of the lyric art and in order to more open the job market with the young artists of all the scenic and musical professions.

Its role proactif in the musical and artistic life of the Montérégie, Quebec, the Beauce and several other areas of the Quebec and Canada since 1974, was recognized of first importance by the different ones to mitigate government like by several companies and organizations, of all sizes, which financially facilitated the achievement of these objectives.

1986 - Foundation of the “New lyric varieties” (NVL), on the model of the lyric Varieties of Lionel Daunais:

the NVL will offer ten representations of a different operetta, with each autumn, three consecutive years, in the Place of arts (of Montreal) and with the Large theater (of Quebec), under the artistic director of Bruno Laplante.

1994 - Foundation of the “New musical theater” (NTM), with Quebec, succeeding the Unit Cantabile of Montreal, and on the same model.

1998 - Beginning of the edition of partitions and CD by “the editions of the NTM”.

2000 - Beginnings on scene of “the Laplante-Duval family”: the two children (then old of 4 and 8 years) of France and Bruno will often divide the scene with their parents, in solos, duets, quartets, provided with a repertory which sied at their age, in spectacles or concerts addressing itself to the young families initially.
