Alexandra Lee
A graduate of the University of Toronto’s Music Performance program (2003) and a Royal Conservatory of Music trained artist-educator, Alexandra Lee has matured into a consummate performance cellist and music educator. Ms. Lee and her cello have collaborated on projects in styles of classical, avant-garde, jazz, rock/ popular, and her newly-cultivated passion for children’s music.
As co-founder of the Silver Birch String Quartet (est. 2004), she made three recordings and has received several accolades including both Juno and Félix nominations (2010). She has had the pleasure of collaborating in concert with many of Canada’s prominent musicians and composers (Tanya Tagaq, Peter Longworth, Alexander Sevastian, Brian Current, Yoko Hirota and many others). |
She has played her cello as an “ambassador of the arts” all over the Near-North of Ontario in Sudbury, North Bay, Timmins, Hearst, Manitoulin Island, Elliot Lake, Temagami, Shining Tree, as well as performed nationally and internationally in Quebec, Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia, California, and Italy. The repertoire ranges across JS Bach, Haydn, Debussy, Shostakovich, Lutoslawski, R. Murray Schafer, experimental improvisation, and many more between the lines. When asked what is her favourite music, she often says “the one on my music stand”, showing her dedication for each project she embarks upon.
Now enjoying life on Vancouver Island, Alexandra teaches cello at the Nanaimo Conservatory of Music. Delighted to have received a warm welcome in the musical community, she plays with Vancouver Island Symphony, Victoria Symphony, and various concert engagements around the island.
