"Really, all we want is to please the public," stated musical director Pierre Walder, who went through about 400 CDs to pick out 30 or 31 minutes of music. Spectators will be taken on an odysee with a common thread of percussions and brass, running the gamut from the beginnings of New France to Vivaldi and Rossini, and onto contemporary musicians such as Chet Baker, Alain Morisod, and Serge Gainsbourg.

To add to the fantasy and close the 24th edition of L'International in a fitting manner, Panzera offers us no less than 24 highly different acts. While the degree of difficulty of this "exercise in style" is high, the Italian firm can count on a nearly limitless supply of its own products, since Panzera is one of the world's major manufacturers. They have 600 types of Roman candles in-store, with a multitude of different delay times (to keep pace with the music!) and every color in the rainbow and pastels that have never been seen here before. As the fireworks designer Pier Paolo Serafino, puts it, Panzera has the advantage of using their own materials.

A few scenes from a video interview with Pierre Walder and Maria Grazia Gerbaudo can be viewed on the Internet at www.internationaldesfeuxlotoquebec.com. The site also lists the titles of the 24 pieces of music (drums and trumpets) that will be heard during the show.
