Mythical and warm melodies from harpist Isabeau Corriveau and percussionist Iohann Laliberté will let you discover the musical jewels of Wales, Ireland, Scotland and Brittany. These two exceptional musicians will definitely charm you!
Bio : Isabeau started her musical training at a very young age. She distinguished herself by winning many provincial and national competitions such as Vincent-d’Indy, l’APMQ (Association des professeurs de musique du Québec), le Concours de concertos de l’OSJS, le Concours du Canada, etc.
She had the opportunity to participate in the “Joie de chanter” Festival in Martinique. With the aid of Jeunesses musicales du Canada, she performed in Holland. Recently, she played at the Festival of Harps and at the opening of Cirque de soleil’s Kooza in California. Isabeau performed as the invited soloist for a series of concerts with the McGill Chamber Orchestra as well as at the National Arts Centre in Ottawa at Place des Arts in Montreal. Many other prestigious halls have welcomed her, such as the Historic Bon-Pasteur Chapel, Salle Pierre-Mercure, many cultural centres and, internationally, at the Doelen Concert Hall in Rotterdam.
With the goal of perfecting her training, she has performed at many summer festivals such as the Amherst Early Music Festival and the Bay Area Folk Harp Society in the United States. We can see and hear her on the radio and on television on Radio-Canada, Bravo and Télé-Québec. Isabeau completed a Bachelor’s degree with excellence for interpretation of the recorder at the University of Montreal and continued her studies with Dr. Cheryl-Ann Fulton, historical harp specialist (Medieval, Renaissance and Baroque) in California.
A sensitive and talented musician, Isabeau has also developed her teaching skills. She teaches harp as well as flute and regularly gives workshops for various organisations such as the Université du Troisième-âge.
In addition, her collaborations in popular music have been very successful, such as “Ce que tu donnes ” with Claire Pelletier and ” La où le coeur mène ” with Mathieu Lippé. We can hear her on the sound track for the film “Du Big Bang au Vivant” by Hubert Reeves, in the music of Christian Thomas and on the new Steeve Diamond album.
Recently, she has been developing a taste for composing. We can find several of her compositions on her latest album, “Pour Mieux Rêver”.
Isabeau and Mélisande have sold over 6,000 copies of their first album entitled “Isabeau et Mélisande”.
