Ren茅 Fr茅chette 鈥� Executive Director, Canadian International Organ
Competition
Born in Drummondville, Ren茅 Fr茅chette received his bachelor in
business administration from the Universit茅 de Sherbrooke in 1983.
His career led him to arts administration where he has developed
with enthusiasm several large-scale projects for established
organizations. He has actively involved himself in his community,
namely for the Drummond Chamber of Commerce and with other cultural
and recreotouristic organisations.
Before joining the CIOC, Ren茅 Fr茅chette was executive and artistic
director of the Mondial des Cultures de Drummondville, an
international festival founded in 1982. During his eight-year
mandate, the event saw its operations budget double, in addition to
increasing its credibility amongst the major international events
in Quebec. He has always been dedicated to reconciling the artistic
mission and the financial prerogatives, both ever so necessary to
the harmonious development of any organisation.
Alexis Carter 鈥� Ensemble Resource Administrator, Schulich School of
Music
I am originally from Houston, Texas. After graduating from the High
School of the Performing and Visual Arts I attended 成人VR视频
University for my Bachelor's degree in Viola Performance and Music
History and again for a Master's in Viola Performance. Working as a
musician and an administrator for ensembles and organisations in
Texas and in Canada has brought me to where I am now: the Ensemble
Resource/Booking Office Administrator for the Schulich School of
Music. My first managing experience was serving as the head manager
for all of the girls volleyball teams at Spring Branch Middle
School, but I prefer working with musicians since there are not
locker rooms involved!
