To warm up (it is one of the coldest day of the year in Montreal), below is a 20-minute radio interview (in French) with competition director Martyne Gagnon, and technical director Paul Csukassy, broadcast on Radio-Canada last summer. The interview emphasizes the musical component of the displays, from the show design to trends in pyromusical art:

Those who have already attended shows at La Ronde will especially enjoy the music segment embedded in the interview (as much as the competition director herself) ! ;-)
