Artists
The CordaVox duo, formed by guitarist Bruno Gauthier-Bellerose and soprano Lucie St-Martin, emerged from their meeting at the Conservatoire de musique de Montréal. They focus on interpreting classical and contemporary repertoire, as well as commissioning new works from current composers, highlighting the complementarity of guitar and voice. CordaVox offers a musical experience that combines the rich tones of classical guitar with lyrical vocal expression.
Bruno Gauthier-Bellerose, one of the winners of the Prix d’Europe in 2019, completed his master’s degree with high distinction under the instruction of Jean Vallières. Having also studied composition, his works have been performed in Quebec, Portugal, and Belgium. In addition to his solo performances, Bruno collaborates with ensembles, including Forestare, and recently released his first solo album, Variations, showcasing his virtuosity and artistic sensibility.
Lucie St-Martin is known for her brilliant voice and unique stage presence. After being an artist in residence at the Atelier Lyrique of the Opéra de Montréal and at Opera on the Avalon in Newfoundland, she can now be heard both on the national stage (La voix humaine, Jeunesses Musicales Canada – L’Enfant et les sortilèges, OdM) and internationally (The Lotte Lehmann Competition Finals in New York, on tour in China with the Jeunes Ambassadeurs Lyriques). Lucie has collaborated with several prestigious orchestras (Orchestre Métropolitain, Orchestre symphonique de Québec), further solidifying her reputation in the musical scene.
