Romanian Canadian pianist Elisabeta Cojocaru is deeply committed to sharing her love for music as a collaborative pianist, soloist, and educator.

She has performed in summer festivals such as the Franz Schubert Institute in Austria, l’Académie vocale internationale de Lachine in Montréal, SongFest in Nashville, Opera Nuova in Edmonton, and Exzellenz Labor Oper in Germany.

An alumna of Wilfrid Laurier University and the University of Ottawa, she is presently pursuing a doctoral degree at l’Université de Montréal. Elisabeta’s research takes a personal twist, delving into the performance practice of Romanian Art Song, reflecting her dedication to interpreting and preserving her cultural heritage.

In Montréal, Elisabeta served as a collaborative pianist for the premiere of Sortilegio, and productions with Opera McGill as a member of the McGill-UdeM Piano-Vocal Arts Residency. She is currently a pianist with the Canadian Opera Company’s Ensemble studio for their 25/26 and 26/27 season.
