The Jireh Gospel Choir and Montreal Gospel Choir, both directed by Carol Bernard, are joining forces once again this year to kick off the holiday festivities with Noël Gospel, which features gospel classics and original compositions sung in both official languages. The two-hour celebrations — and there are three of them — take place at Salle Pierre-Mercure at the Centre Pierre-Péladeau, 300 Boul. de Maisonneuve E., this Saturday, Nov. 30 at 8 p.m.; and Sunday, Dec. 1 at 3 and 7:30 p.m. The Jireh Gospel Choir is composed of 15 members from the Afro-Montreal community, while the Montreal Gospel Choir (MGC) features 85 singers from different cultural backgrounds who represent today’s multi-ethnic Montreal. Together, the 100+ performers will belt out pieces ranging from traditional to contemporary gospel, from negro spiritual to hip-hop with a joyful and contagious stage energy. “With Noël Gospel you don’t need to go to the United States to see choirs singing authentic gospel music,” stated Bernard. “It’s Brooklyn coming to Montreal.” And if you expect to sit quietly and comfortably in your seats all evening, you are, I am told, sadly mistaken. “Participation is very important,” said Bernard when I spoke to her last year. “When you’re talking about the roots of gospel in churches in the United States, it’s really about getting the crowds to sing. So, there are moments when they will not be able to sing, and they won’t want to sing. But there will be moments where they will be singing, dancing, and calling back at us.” Visit https://montrealgospel.com Ballet Ouest de Montréal Ballet Ouest de Montréal is taking its annual performances of Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker on the road from November 29 to December 21 with stops in Victoriaville, Montreal, Saint-Jean sur Richelieu, L’Assomption, and Kookamunga...

Interactive, contemplative, and luminous works of cutting-edge public art are set to brighten up parts of downtown Montreal and the Quartier des Spectacles when the 15th edition of Lumino returns Thursday, Nov. 28 to March 9, 2025. Lumino, short for Luminothérapie, is a “must-see” (get it?) winter event that is free of charge and open every day from 4 to 11 p.m. Since we are in line for shorter days and longer nights for the next few months, artists from here and abroad are given a large canvas to display their “brilliance” (get it?) by lighting up our nights. Some 30 unique installations are spread across 15 public spaces between Place Émilie-Gamelin and the esplanade at Place Ville Marie. One not-to-be-missed piece of work — on hand until January 5 — is a volumetric sculpture called At the Hand, by Montrealer Patrice LaCroix. By combining artificial intelligence and computer vision, this rather large, immersive installation offers the public the opportunity to control a giant holographic hand. Oh, the possibilities. It says here that the experience “also encourages a reflection on the power dynamics between human beings and machines and the reciprocal control of one over the other. The work, which ironically uses technology, seeks to remind us that it is what we do with our hands every day that defines who we are.” Well, okay... but it does sound like fun.

Unlocking the Next Big Opportunity in Tech: Why You Should Pay Attention
La Salle defeats Temple 83-75Arsenal, Manchester City and Bayern Munich all advanced to the Women’s Champions League quarterfinals with with two games to spare on Thursday. Late substitute Lina Hurtig scored the winner in Arsenal's 1-0 victory over Juventus in London. Khadija Shaw scored twice for City in a 2-1 win at Swedish club Hammarby. City stayed perfect in Group D with four victories and reached the last eight for the first time since 2021. Bayern Munich was held 1-1 at Vålerenga in Norway and still earned a quarterfinal berth after Juventus' loss. Arsenal, Bayern and City join Chelsea, Lyon and Real Madrid in the quarterfinals. Two-time defending champion Barcelona routed Austrian champion St. Pölten 4-1. The Catalan club trails City by three points in their group and is in a strong position to advance. Bayern tops Group C with 10 points, Arsenal has nine followed by Juventus (3) and Vålerenga (1). Man City responded to its first loss of the season, 2-0 at Chelsea in the Women's Super League on Saturday. Still without injured star Vivianne Miedema , Shaw took charge, proving her scoring instincts after half an hour. The forward scored from inside the penalty area with a deflected shot that flew over goalkeeper Anna Tamminen to frustrate more than 20,000 noisy fans at the Stockholm Arena in the Swedish capital. Ellen Wangerheim equalized soon after the interval from close range to rejuvenate the crowd but Shaw struck again to restore the lead just minutes later. This time, she delivered a powerful right-footed finish from the edge of the area. Bayern dominated possession but could not translate it into goals until the 75th minute. It had to rely on substitute Jovana Damnjanović, who gave the visitors a late lead after connecting on a pass from Giulia Gwinn. The Norwegians, who have retained their domestic title, equalized in the 88th on Elise Thorsnes' header following a corner. Pernille Harder, who found the back of the net five times for Bayern in the previous three games, could not do it again on Thursday and was substituted. Hurtig came on with 10 minutes remaining and made her presence immediately felt with several headers. She finally made the breakthrough with a minute remaining in regulation, tapping in from close range after Juventus’ poor clearance of a low cross by Stina Blackstenius. Hurtig won the Italian title with Juventus in 2021 and 2022 before joining the Gunners. Juventus seemed to learn a lesson from its 4-0 loss to Arsenal last week as its defense held firm till Hurtig’s arrival. In an 11-minute span in the first half, Francisca Nazareth netted twice and 18-year-old Vicky Lopez scored once to put Barcelona in control. Nazareth's double was followed by Lopez hitting the third with a shot high into the net for her first Champions League goal. Alexia Putellas made it 4-0 in the second half, finishing a fast attack that tore apart the defense in Vienna. It was her 200th goal for Barcelona and the 100th the club scored in the Champions League’s group stage. Valentina Mädl, an 18-year-old forward, netted a consolation goal for the hosts. Barcelona has scored 20 goals in its past three games and can still become the first club to win its group in all four years since the introduction of the format.
