Artist Biography
After years of focusing on the violin and piano, Alexandre Da Costa has added conducting to his list of talents.

He issued the album Hendrix, McCartney & Ysaÿe in 2002; he again performed on both violin and piano on that album. In 2009, he founded the Ensemble Camerata Orford in Quebec. In 2018, he was named music director and chief conductor of the Longueuil Symphony Orchestra near Montreal. His 2012 recording of works by Michael Daugherty with the Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal under conductor Pedro Halffter won Canada's Juno Award. He issued the album Tchaikovsky in 2017, following that up with Stradivarius Je me souviens in 2022.
