Frédéric Lacroix has performed in the United States, Canada and Taiwan, including performances with the Albany and Ottawa Symphony Orchestras, Cornell Chamber Orchestra, Ensemble Fusions, and the Society of New Music. He has made regular radio appearances on the Canadian CBC and SRC or the American NPR. He has enjoyed collaborating with composers and performers in the premiere of a number of Canadian and American works and as a composer, he has been privileged to have his works performed in the United States and Canada. Frédéric’s latest song cycle, Nova Scotia Tartan (2004), is featured on Hail, a disc dedicated to Canadian Art Song. Much in demand as collaborative artist, teacher, adjudicator and composer, he currently teaches at the University of Ottawa. A graduate of l’Université de Montréal and the University of Ottawa, where he studied with Marc Durand, Cynthia Floyd and Andrew Tunis, he is currently working on his Doctorate degree at Cornell University where he is studying keyboard performance practice with Malcolm Bilson. For his work in the field of early music, Frederic has been named the Westfield Center Performing Scholar for the present year.
