Julie-Anne Derome prioritizes a scintillating technique, a rigorous bow and original poetic colours.

Julie-Anne Derome gave the world première of the revised version of the Berg Violin Concerto with the symphony orchestra of the RNCM [2] in 1992, which triggered her passion for 20th-century music. She regularly premieres concertos by Canadian composers and solo works with ensembles.

In 1998 Julie-Anne founded the Trio Fibonacci. The group plays music for piano trio of all eras, being particularly recognised for its brilliant performances of contemporary repertoire.
