Show detail Hide detail

Maheu, Renée, 1929- : Québec-born Renée Maheu studied singing with Raoul Jobin, Louise André, Bernard Diamant, Maestra Fambri, Giorgio Favaretto, Pierre Bernac and Ré Koster. From 1965 to 1968, she also studied musicology at the Conservatoire de Paris with Norbert Dufourcq. She performed as a singer in a number of countries with orchestras such as the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal and the McGill Chamber Orchestra. In 1968, after an accident in Yugoslavia, she turned to journalism, writing articles for, among others, Le Devoir, Les Cahiers canadiens de musique, Opera Canada, Sonances and Opéra international. In addition to working on radio and television broadcasts for the CBC (Chronique du disque, Femmes d'aujourdhui, etc.), she produced the series entitled Les Grandes voix du Canada for Radio-France and Analekta records and was also responsible for the Jeunes virtuoses series broadcast on TV5Canada. A thorough biographer, she wrote Raoul Jobin, la voix d'or du Québec (1983), Pierrette Alarie et Léopold Simoneau : deux voix, un art (1988) and Un Piano sur la mer : John Newmark et son temps (1997).
