As a conductor, Véronique has led youth concerts with the Montreal Classical Orchestra (OCM), the Longueuil Symphony Orchestra (OSDL) now known as the Quebec Philharmonic Orchestra (OPQ), the Youth Orchestra and Choir of the University of Montreal's Faculty of Music, now called L'École LUMI, as well as the Symphony Orchestra and Choir of the Vincent d'Indy School of Music.

 

During Kent Nagano's tenure, she served as an Ambassador for the Montreal Symphony Orchestra (MSO) for the Enchanted Choral Project and the Steinberg Project, and offered school visits for Alice in Wonderland and Presto, Mambo. She also served as an Ambassador for the Faculty of Music at the University of Montreal, giving lectures at CEGEP on the composition of a symphony orchestra and the role of the conductor. During School Perseverance Week, she was invited to give a presentation alongside other prominent women."

 

Prior to her Doctorate in Orchestral Conducting (D.Mus.) and concurrently with her Master's in Choral Conducting (M.Mus.), Véronique accumulated a decade of experience in music education in schools. She taught harmony groups, led a group piano concentration, and brought all students together for choir.

​

This experience has given her a deep, multidimensional, and beneficial conviction about the power of music.

 

'The interest you demonstrate through your commitment allows for large-scale projects to be realized and contributes to promoting a positive image of our wonderful youth. Accompanied by the Longueuil Symphony Orchestra, the grand Christmas concert with your choir, bringing together sixty of your students, was an undeniable success. A large part of this success is attributable to the quality of the choir that you were able to conduct with brilliance.'

A. Byette, General Director CSMV​​

 

I would like to highlight Véronique's commitment, passion, and great involvement. She knows how to transmit her values. The students' recognition of their teacher impressed me. Their performance was sublime and everyone was charmed. Her qualities as a stage director and music director are evident. Most importantly, the young people are 'infected' by the passion that drives their teacher.'
