RÉSUMÉ

Chamber musicians will have the opportunity to work with cellist David Ellis (previously from the Quatuor Saguenay), violinist Brett Molzan (professor at the Université de Montréal), pianist Myriam Bernard who holds a Doctorate in Piano Performance from Université de Montréal and Claire Marchand, one of Québec’s most sought-after flutists.

In addition, four exceptional vocalists from the Studio de musique ancienne de Montréal will join us as coaches and performers: Megan Chartrand (soprano), Leah Weitzner, (mezzo soprano), Justin Jalea (tenor), and John Giffen (bass). This presents a unique opportunity for singers to receive personalized instruction from members of Canada’s premier early music ensemble.

In addition to choral and chamber music, the program offers a rich variety of activities including instrumental classes, active listening sessions, and revitalizing yoga classes to help maintain energy and focus throughout this immersive musical experience.

In collaboration with CAMMAC Music Centre
