Chantale Laplante

Chantale Laplante’s artistic practice as a musician and composer is like an extended exploration of different musical genres involving instrumental, mixed medium, electroacoustic and live improvisation with the computer. Her performances and works have been performed in the Americas, Europe and Asia. During the last few years, and through her doctorate studies (Ph. D. Études et pratiques des arts, Université du Québec à Montréal, 2021), she has deepened and extended her concept of the hyper listening body through a new reflection on the listening conditions in the context of an in situ approach and various format of concert-installations. In the end, the listener’s body is placed at the center of her devices, where she seeks to offer a sensory experience while the work continues its march in a sound space anchored in the atmosphere of the place.
