Biography

Genticorum, a Montreal‑based popular traditional Québécois musical trio formed in 2000, emerged from a common interest in French‑Canadian fiddle tunes, with Pascal Gemme on fiddle and vocals, Yann Falquet on guitar and jaw harp, and Nicholas Williams on wooden flute and accordion. Their album releases, such as Malins Plaisirs (2005), earned the Canadian Folk Music Award for Best Ensemble and received Juno and Félix nominations. The band continued with Enregistré Live (2013), Avant l'orage (2018), and an EP series in 2020. Genticorum toured extensively across North America, Europe, and Asia, integrating Celtic, Irish, and North Indian influences into their arrangements, while maintaining French lyrics and traditional rhythms. Their music has remained a mainstay of Quebec’s dance and workshop scenes, reflecting a legacy of collaboration and cultural preservation.
