HOBBIES

Singing has always been essential for me! I started at thirteen when I joined the children's choir of the Opera Garnier in Paris. Later, in the Seventies, I earned my living singing American and French folksongs in Paris and other European capitals. Later, I came back to my first love and studied opera singing for seven years with Madame Jacqueline Boiret who had sung in operas all over Europe.Since my settling in Brittany, in the year 2000, I thoroughly enjoyed following Hélène Kervazo's singing classes for three years and am currently exploring the polyphonic singing repertoire of the Twentieth Century with the vocal ensemble "Voilà Voix-La", directed by Cécile Girod.
