La Chapelle de Québec

b i o g r a p h y...........back to roster....up La Chapelle de Québec, founded by Bernard Labadie in 1985, is a nationally-based chamber choir of professional singers recruited mainly in Québec City, but also throughout Québec and Canada. It assembles for two or three concerts each season to join Les Violons du Roy in major works from the repertory for choir and orchestra, especially from the 18th century. Its performances of cantatas, oratorios and masses by Bach, Handel, Mozart and Haydn have been acclaimed throughout Canada and the United States, in particular thanks to many broadcasts by Radio-Canada, the CBC and NPR in the United States. La Chapelle de Québec has performed regularly on tour with Les Violons du Roy, in particular in Handel’s Messiah and Bach’s St. Matthew Passion in Toronto, in an all-Vivaldi program in France and in Mozart’s Requiem in Toronto and the United States. The choir is often asked to appear with Bernard Labadie in the concerts he conducts with US orchestras, including the Los Angeles Symphony, with which it performed Handel’s Messiah in 2004 and Bach’s Magnificat in 2006. La Chapelle de Québec won a Juno Award for its recording of Mozart’s Requiem , released by Dorian in 2002. back to roster...up . .
