Happy Canada Day, All!

I've celebrated by adding some new content to my Contact page. There on the new dropdown menus, you'll find more detailed information about my services as a performer and as a pedagogue. Here's a quick sneak peak...

As a vocal teacher, Michelle has instructed students from ages eight to eighty in the fundamentals of classical western vocal technique.  Michelle bases her teaching upon the Royal Conservatory of Music’s (RCM) vocal program.  She also draws upon her east-coast musical heritage, introducing Newfoundland and  British Isle’s folk music selections to her lessons.

Feel free to click through to Celebrations and Lessons for more detailed information!

Spring news - Brouwer and Rockin' out

Rob Carroll and I spent some time re-recording the Dos Canciones by Cuban composer Leo Brouwer Just finished uploading the second piece Madrigalillo, to my Media Gallery.

Earlier this week I went to an interesting talk/networking event at the Rotman School of Business (yes - talk about a fish out of water). I really enjoyed it and will share some thoughts here soon.

As for music making, tonight May 30th, I'm expanding my horizons a bit by singing backup harmonies with a pop-rock band, Young Doctors in Love. Show starts tonight at midnight at The Garrison.
