A passionate advocate for the importance of education, Louise Pelletier has taught piano at the University of Quebec in Montreal (UQAM) and the CEGEP Vincent d鈥橧ndy. As a coach, Mrs. Pelletier鈥檚 goal is to combine musical development with human development. It is important that she seek out what is unique to each student, and that she understand their personality, in an effort to unlock the key to their personal development. The vast array of experience she has acquired allows her to tap into the many facets required to develop a strong musician and allows her to provide every student with a solid foundation, as well as the heart that is necessary to make music. She maintains a close collaboration with each of her students, assisting them not only in their musical education and aesthetic awareness, but accompanying them on a journey to becoming well-rounded artists. She works closely with every individual, building a repertoire specific to their personality and skill set, and accompanies them in lessons, coachings and travels with them to competitions throughout Quebec and Canada. Many of her students have gone on to win prizes at the Festival de Musique du Royaume, Festival de Musique Clermont-P茅pin, Concours de Musique du Choeur de la Montagne, Concours de Musique de la Capitale, National Music Festival, and the Canadian Music Competition. In addition, several of her students have gone on to international success, performing on the many stages across the world today, such as the Canadian Opera Company, the Metropolitan Opera, Covent Garden, the Vienna Staatsoper, the Vienna Volksoper and La Scala.

Louise Pelletier holds a double Bachelor鈥檚 degree in Teaching and Performance as well as a Master of Music in Piano Performance. She further pursued her studies with Nina Svetlanova in New York City. Several apprenticeships in Canada, the United States and Europe have rounded out and completed her training. Studies in accompaniment and vocal coaching with Jacqueline Richard were instrumental in her career and have helped shape the pianist, vocal coach and teacher she is today.
