Sébastien Daigle

Sébastien a fait des études en musique, en littérature et en droit à Montréal. Il travaille désormais comme marin et navigue dans les eaux canadiennes, du fleuve Saint-Laurent aux mers de l’Arctique. Il s’intéresse à toutes les époques musicales, du Moyen-Âge à aujourd’hui, avec un faible néanmoins pour la musique baroque et le romantisme.
