"All-the-while with her inherent pleasant positive attitude and diligent, hard-working work ethic, Sandrine continually strives for excellence with a solid ear for improvisation, flawless rhythm and an enlightened sense of melody. An absolute pleasure to work with!" - David Finkle, award-winning multi-instrumental recording artist and producer
Sandrine est une musicienne d’une grande sensibilité artistique, possédant une versatilité lui permettant avec aisance de toucher à plusieurs styles musicaux. Son jeu musical expressif à l’alto exprime les subtilités des oeuvres musicales tout en laissant transparaître une lumière. Son engagement dans son art fait d'elle une collaboratrice loyale et inspirante. - Marie-France Mathieu, chef d’orchestre
