 | Gilles Villeneuve Hi, did you know that the great car racer from canada was also a passionate trumpet player Born in Chambly, Que., Jan. 18, 1950, Villeneuve and his family moved to Berthierville when he was eight. His father, Seville, was a travelling piano tuner, and Gilles' first passion was music. He would practise his trumpet five or six hours a day.
