    Sarah Coponat: The Chopin of Twitch

    Sarah Coponat has built herself an incredible career - but her path is not for the faint of heart. Could you imagine doing live-streamed improvisations four times a week, for YEARS? Terrifying, right? I loved this interview and I know you will too. A true alchemist of the piano, Sarah Coponat unites technical complexity and raw emotion in a style at once modern, neoclassical romantic and cinematic. Between acoustic piano, electronic and organic textures, she captivates with her haunting powerful voice and surprises with unusual instruments, down to the kazoo. She s a real, modern romantic composer and piano virtuoso. She started composing at 5 years old and is an internationally recognised improviser, she has performed in Rolling Stone Magazine's New York studios and plays in France and abroad (Senegal, Berlin, Amsterdam…). Her online improvisation concerts have built a devoted community that earned her the nickname "the Chopin of Twitch". A prolific artist, she has a new album coming out and she records produces and releases everything independently with her brother Sébastien Coponat at the Coponat Records studio that they created in the south of france ( open to other artists ) . She composes for video games (PlayStation) and award-winning short films, haute couture runaways.. Getting there wasn't easy - she built everything independently, working closely with her brother Sebastien. She went through a real journey of finding her freedom, breaking from the classical mold, in music and in her life. She studied math and physics at high level before quitting everything to pursue music without any idea of how everything would turn out and no contact in the music industry. her last shows were sold out in Paris. https://sarahcoponat.com/ https://sarahcoponat.com/liens Book a free discovery call with me!

    Joaquin Soffredini: Countertenor. Songwriter. Actor.

    From a young age, Joaquín Soffredini stood out in music and singing. He was awarded with grants throughout his career in recognition of his talent by the “Fondo Nacional de las Artes” and the “Fundación Beethoven” among others. He perfected his skills as a countertenor in Buenos Aires with renowned teachers such as Ricardo Yost and Marilú Anselmi, in addition to studying chamber music with Mónica Cosachov. His talent led him to play the role of Orpheus in Gluck’s opera “Orfeo ed Euridice” and a few years later, to be part of the play “Espectros” (H. Ibsen) alongside the famous actress Ingrid Pelicori and Walter Quiroz. In musical theatre, he shone in “El Ave”, a show produced by Linda Peretz, under the direction of the talented Julián Vat, in which Joaquín was acclaimed by critics. On the international stage, he made his debut in Paris in 2019 with a successful tour along France, followed by performances in England, Italy and Portugal. In 2021, he composed two songs for the French film “Down in Paris” and was awarded in London as “Best Classical Singer” at the “Stars of the Albion” festival. In 2024 Joaquin spent most of his time working on his new songs, composing, producing and recording. He also created its own music videos for some of his own compositions. In 2025, he received an award for his professional achievements. This award was presented by "Madrid Magazine" in Spain. “Premio a la trajectoria professional” https://joaquinsoffredini.com/ https://www.instagram.com/joaquinsofredini/ Book a free discovery call with me!

    Peter Hildebrandt: Bassist and Serial Entrepreneur

    Peter is a great example of someone who proves you can balance music and another career. He is a serial entrepreneur who founded and sold companies doing such diverse things as weather forecasting for windsurfers, 3D molecular modeling, traffic signal control, photo capture software, and book publishing. Since he loves the business of making products, he also happily consulted with many companies such as HP, Intel, Roche Pharmaceuticals, Nike, RainBird, Microsoft, and others. And after selling one of his businesses, he ran research and development for a division of Steelcase, the world’s largest office furniture company, for 13 years. But he’s also a musician –playing the string bass (and later the cello) throughout that career and improving his craft. Today he’s a professional bassist in the Atlanta metro area. Finally, fifteen years ago, Peter was able to merge his love for business and music. He started Aria Lights which manufactures professional music stand lights. Today they are considered the gold-standard in symphony orchestras, on Broadway, in pits, and by freelancers throughout North America. I was lucky enough to spend time with him at the International Double Reed Society conference at Miami University and decided that you needed to get to know him too! www.arialights.com peterh@arialights.com www.score.org Book a free discovery call with me!

    Pauline Frechette: At the Edge of Everything

    Pauline Frechette is a contemporary composer. Her melodies and harmonies take you to unexpected places, emotionally driven yet only 3 or 4 minutes long. Her compositions are gems that spark the 21st century need for private inspiration, sensual beauty or glowing romanticisim. A Frechette miniature fills the need for warm flow, deeper meaning or emotional lift to a higher plane. Pauline composes mostly from the piano. Her neo-classical music has been compared to Schuman, Ravel and Eric Satie. Critics say of Pauline’s music: “…absolutely captivating beyond words.” ~ Jeremy Gladstone, Sleeping Bag Studios “…hip and vulnerable, cool and polished all at once.” ~ Jacob Aiden, Jamsphere Radio “… I have never in my life as a professional music critic heard anyone touch my heart the way that she does when I hear her songs.” ~ Jack Saint, Music Reviews Pauline’s great-grandfather, Josef Vezina, founded the Quebec Symphony and her father was the organist for the Chicago Black Hawks. From an early age, Pauline played violin in youth orchestras, won piano competitions and was a scholarship student at the American Conservatory of Music. Her musicals have been produced by the Goodspeed Opera House and the La Mirada Performing Arts Center. Her compositions have been performed by the Baltimore Symphony, Hollywood Bowl Orchestra, New West Symphony, Cincinnati Symphony, National Symphony at the Kennedy Center and at Walt Disney Concert Hall. Pauline’s last four albums debuted in the Top Ten on Billboard’s Classical, Classical Cross-over and Jazz charts. Her music is currently played internationally and has over 30 million streams. Her new album, At the Edge of Everything, features legendary bassist, Stanley Clarke. https://paulinefrechette.com instagram: paulinefrechettemusic Facebook: Pauline Frechette (aka Raven Kane) Book a free discovery call with me!
