BIOGRAPHY

Named one of the “30 hottest Canadian classical musicians under 30” by the CBC, pianist Chloé Dumoulin is establishing herself as one of the most promising artists of her generation. With a sensitive, masterful, and deeply expressive style, she is known for her “impressive command of the instrument, with a sound that never jarring to the listener, even in fortissimos” (Le Soleil), and for her “commendable sense of suspense” in her musical storytelling. Her playing, always nuanced, is distinguished by “a tone color that is constantly in tune with the evolution of the harmony” and reveals, according to critic Emmanuel Bernier, “an artist who truly has something to say.”

​

Chloé Dumoulin has an international career that has taken her to Canada, the United States, Europe, and Asia, where she toured China in 2024, performing recitals as a soloist and chamber musician, combined with master classes and jury participation. She made her debut at the Maison symphonique de Montréal under the baton of Jacques Lacombe in 2021, and has already distinguished herself as a soloist with the Orchestre Métropolitain and the Orchestre symphonique de Laval. She has performed at Carnegie Hall, St James's Piccadilly (London), the Barbican Centre, the Chapelle historique du Bon-Pasteur, the Festival de Lanaudière, the Concerts Lachine, and Salle Bourgie.

​

Winner of the 3rd Grand Prix at the 2024 Prix d’Europe competition, she also received an award from the Sylva-Gelber Foundation in 2025 and has received support from several organizations, including the Conservatory Foundation, the Desjardins Foundation, the AIDA Funds of Jeunesses Musicales of Canada, and the Canadian Centennial Scholarship Fund.

In 2025, she completed an Artist Diploma with distinction at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London, as a full Leverhulme Arts Scholar, under the tutelage of Ronan O'Hora. Since September 2025, she has been a Junior Fellow at the Guildhall. Trained at the Conservatoire de musique de Montréal with André Laplante (piano) and Claire Ouellet (accompaniment), she obtained a double master's degree in 2023, as well as a Chamber Music Competition with distinction. She has also benefited from the guidance of several masters during internships and masterclasses, including Louis Lortie, Richard Goode, Paul Lewis, Gabriela Montero, Arie Vardi, Robert Levin, Dame Imogen Cooper, Éric Le Sage, and Angela Cheng.

“Perhaps Chloé Dumoulin will succeed in making the circle of great Quebec concert pianists (Hamelin, Lortie, Richard-Hamelin, Liu, and others) a less uniformly male universe.” – Le Soleil
