Martinet

Marie-Madeleine Martinet started singing at 16 in the youth choir “La voz de los sin voces”, based in the Quebrada region of Bolivia, Chile and Argentina. She studied accordion at Pro Musica and travelled widely across the Middle East and Eastern Europe, her trusty accordion always by her side.
Since 2015, Marie-Madeleine has been exploring how the body itself can be an instrument. She has trained in the art of transmission with Emmanuel Pesnot and in various workshops. Marie-Madeleine composes and performs with groups Bande à KoustiK, Tant que li siam and Madalena. She also teaches traditional polyphonic singing through weekly classes, ateliers and school sessions.
