Angèle Dubeau, one of Canada’s most prominent artistes, formed the string ensemble La Pietà in 1997. This nine-strong all-female ensemble has since earned itself an enviable reputation from its many recordings and live performances.
Music critic François Tousignant of Le Devoir praised the ensemble for “… precision of attack, quality of ensemble playing…spirit and energy” and concluded that the delight they take in making music is “contagious”. We expect to see delighted audiences tripping a light step as they leave the auditorium! Angèle Dubeau & La Pietà will provide an up-tempo programme featuring a wide variety of styles to appeal to all lovers of classical music.
