Overview

Marie-Nicole Lemieux, a native of Québec, made her mark in 2000 as winner of the Prix de la Reine Fabiola and Prix du Lied at the Concours Reine Elisabeth in Belgium.

The unique colours of her sonorous contralto voice and probing artistry, in high demand worldwide, are directed in this recital to an exquisite programme of chansons from the golden age of French song.
