Philippe Gagné

Renowned for his expressiveness, refined musical sensitivity, vocal flexibility, and the beauty and lightness of his timbre, tenor Philippe Gagné has explored all periods of music, though he has a particular affinity for Baroque music. This special affinity and his innate talent for this genre have led him to perform in Canada, the United States, South America, and Europe. He has sung with numerous acclaimed ensembles, including Les Violons du Roy, Le Studio de musique ancienne de Montréal, Les Boréades, I Musici de Montréal, Le Palais royal, Les Idées heureuses, L’Ensemble Caprice, and L’Harmonie des saisons. He has also sung under the direction of renowned musicians such as Bernard Labadie, Eric Milnes, Christopher Jackson, Francis Colpron, Geneviève Soly, and Hervé Niquet. In March 2014, Mr. Gagné was a laureate of the Bruce Haynes International Competition. That same year he also participated in two recordings under the ATMA Classique label.
