- Guillaume Jabbour: What does Music & Sound Offer to Students & Schools?
Born from a french Canadian mother and a Palestinian father and raised in Lachute, QC, Guillaume Jabbour is a musician and sound artist. He is interested in using sound art as a way of bringing communities together. Guillaume lives with his wife and two children in Gore, QC, where he can often be seen with a handheld recorder waiting for the perfect moment to capture the lonely call of the loon.
