Montréal, May 25, 2022 – Le Concours musical international de Montréal (CMIM) is proud to announce that Maestro Jacques Lacombe will conduct the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal (OSM) for the semifinal and final rounds of the Aria competition on June 6-7 and 9 at Maison symphonique.
The CMIM is extremely grateful to Maestro Jacques Lacombe who has agreed to step in on short notice to conduct for the Aria competition of Voice 2022. Maestro Lacombe last collaborated with the CMIM for Piano 2004. Maestro Bramwell Tovey, who was slated to conduct for Voice 2022, has been advised by his doctors that the next step in the recovery from his recent illness is a period of medical rehabilitation, leaving him unable to make the trip to Montreal. We wish him a speedy and full recovery.
About Jacques Lacombe
Music and Artistic Director of the Orchestre symphonique de Mulhouse in France from 2017 to 2021, Jacques Lacombe has previously been Principal Conductor of the Bonn Opera in Germany from 2016 to 2018 and Music Director of the Orchestre symphonique de Trois-Rivières from 2006 until 2018. Maestro Lacombe also teaches orchestral conducting at the Conservatoire de Musique de Montréal where he is also Music Director of the orchestra.
About the OSM
The CMIM thanks its official orchestra for the competition, the OSM, for contributing to the success of Voice 2022 in accompanying its competitors for the semifinal and final of Aria, presented at Maison symphonique de Montréal.
Since its founding in 1934, the OSM has established itself as a leader in the orchestral life of Québec and Canada and as a cultural ambassador of the highest order. Under the leadership of its musical director Rafael Payare, the orchestra continues in this tradition and distinguishes itself with innovative programming connected to its community. The OSM’s excellence has been demonstrated over the course of fifty national and international tours and of more than a hundred recordings which have fifty awards.
