La Suite Foraine : Francois Couture

Francois Couture : La Suite Foraine.
Canadian composer, musician, orchestrator, arranger and sound designer.

Founded in Quebec City in 2011, Trio Beau Soir is made up of experienced chamber musicians who came together to express their creativity through an ensemble of rarely combined instruments. Trio Beau Soirs repertoire mixes original works for flute, viola and harp, with arrangements and transcriptions of vocal works adapted to the countertenor voice. Always with great attention to subtlety and precision, Trio Beau Soir musicians are equally at ease performing French and lieder melodies, impressionist music and contemporary creations.

Jean-François Gagné; received his degree in violin from Laval University and in viola from Conservatoire de musique de Québec, where he was awarded the Grande Distinction prize upon graduating from the class of François Paradis. Jean-François Gagné currently plays in Orchestre Symphonique de Québec and has worked with Violons du Roy, the Shleswig-Holstein Festival Orchestra, and the string quartet Abysse. He is also pursuing a parallel career as a countertenor, mainly with Trio Beau Soir.

Geneviève Savoie received a rich musical education from Conservatoire de musique de Québec, Conservatoire de musique de Bordeaux, and University of Montreal, where she earned a doctorate in performance.

Winner of the Lieutenant Governor of Québec Award, Geneviève Savoie has received support for her projects from, among others, the Conseil des Arts et des lettres du Québec and the Canada Council for the Arts.
