Marie-Noëlle has developed in the world of classical violin since the age of four years. In 2006, she discovered the world of Celtic music when she joined the ranks of the Scottish music group, Crépuscule, with which she was the violinist until 2011.
This first experience with a group allowed Marie-Noëlle to explore the Irish, Scottish and Asturian traditions and to create her first musical compositions. In the meantime, Sylvain asked her to contribute to another project, Bonhomme Setter. She immediately fell under the spell of the tracks Turning Leaf and Sangre de Toro, both of which were then in their early stages. She became an active member of Bonhomme Setter during the Fall of 2008 and was involved from the start in the search for a repertoire and the creation of new melodies which would be suited to her violin and viola.
At the same time, she was interested in early and baroque music, which allowed her, from time to time, to join various ensembles in the Quebec City region, including the baroque music workshop of Université Laval and the ensemble La Chamaille.
For more than six years, Marie-Noëlle co-manages the Anne-Hélène Chevrette Violin School in Quebec City which has more than 90 violinists, violists and cellists. She hopes to pass on her passion to her many musical apprentices.
