About Valentine Michaud
Saxophonist Valentine Michaud is known for collaborative projects that expand the contemporary repertory for her instrument. In Zurich, Michaud met pianist Akvilé Šileikaitė in 2015; the pair quickly joined forces and formed the Akmi Duo. Michaud's activities since then have been quite varied, including work as a solo artist, performances with several different duo pairings, and innovative projects. She made her recording debut in 2021 as an alto saxophone soloist on the City Light Symphony Orchestra's Spotlight on John Williams album. Michaud has performed frequently with the Akmi Duo and also in a duo with her brother, Gabriel Michaud, on percussion. With another brother, Emmanuel Michaud, she has performed in multidisciplinary events as part of the SIBJA Collective the pair created. Michaud made her debut as a featured artist with the Akmi Duo in 2023 on the album Beyond the Wall.
