Présentation du JSLTrio

Il est venu d’Argentine et le Mexique a été sa terre d’accueille. Il est venu du Mexique et la Gaspésie a été sa terre d’accueille.
Il est Latino-Gaspésien récemment arrivé à Montréal et il est un formidable exemple d’intégration.

Il est accompagné par, le nord de son sud, Jean François Dumas,  et par le talentueux contrebassiste Cédric Dind-Lavoie.

La musique qu’ils font ensemble est un mélange bien dosé des différents folklores de l’Amérique latine et de notre folklore québécois.
À cela, on ajoute quelques teintes de funk et le « groove de la musique actuelle » et l’on obtient une sauce latino gaspésienne TRÈS relevée.

 D. Alvar de Castro

Multilingual poet b. Chile, resident of Montreal, is happy to invite you to the Launch Party of his latest poetry collection in English. His poems are cubist, superposing vivid images and a multiple story lines that hopefully will render in the end a greater, more subversive truth than that commonly accepted, regarding contemporary themes or variations.

By This River

A modern mythology………..without the pathos

 The use of language is both sincere and contained, which demonstrates D. Alvar de Castro’s mastership of poetics. The writer is not in any way overwhelmed by either his senses or his own poetic imagery, but masters them thoroughly and thoughtfully. He has infused his language with an original way of thinking – a quality that cannot be overstressed – for seldom does one come across poetry so totally unencumbered by the ego. 

D. Alvar de Castro is among the very few writers who make a difference in today’s Canada, with its complex, inclusive new culture. This collection of poems is not merely a delight to the senses and language itself, but also a snapshot of what we feel as we move within the contemporary spectrum. It is a humane message for society, without ever becoming didactic. There is more than meets the ear and eye.
