She captivates audiences of leading opera companies, orchestras, festivals and chamber music ensembles across Canada and internationally. She is the engaging host of CBC Radio’s “Tempo” heard weekdays across Canada. Performing with Julie is renowned world class harpist Caroline Léonardelli whose performances have been described as “brilliant” and “close to magical.” Her recordings and live performances are featured not only on CBC Radio, but also on classical radio stations throughout Canada and around the world.
Their most recent collaboration, “Serenata”, was chosen as the recording of the week and featured on the CBC show “Saturday Afternoon at the Opera.”
