La chanson québécoise runs deep here, shaped by generations of poetic, socially engaged songwriting that now blends with pop, electronic music, and international influences in the hands of artists like Hubert Lenoir, a Quebec City native recognized as Radio Canada's revelation of 2018-2019. The classical tradition is equally serious: the Orchestre Symphonique de Québec, founded in 1902, ranks among the oldest orchestras in North America, while Les Violons du Roy, the internationally renowned Baroque and Classical ensemble, calls Palais Montcalm home. Jazz holds firm ground too, with dedicated venues like L'Ostradamus and Bar Ste-Angèle keeping that tradition active. For rock, Impérial Bell is the city's best-known room, and the Festival d'été international de Québec, running since 1968 across stages including the Plains of Abraham, is one of the oldest and largest non-profit music festivals in the world.
