Matt Dupont
Harp recital

« Beauty will redeem the world » From these words by Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Matt Dupont takes his inspiration. Matt is a sensitive and ambitious musician, as dedicated to his solo and orchestral performance career as he is to his teaching.

Matt took up the harp at the age of eight and quickly realized he had found his calling. Full of curiosity and determination, he set off to study abroad with great masters, including Nicolas Tulliez in Shanghai (China) and Heidi Krutzen in Vancouver (BC, Canada), before returning to complete his studies with Caroline Lizotte in Montreal (PQ, Canada).

Matt’s elegant and refined style has earned him a number of invitations to play with some of Quebec’s premier orchestras, including the Montreal Symphony Orchestra, the Orchestre Métropolitain, the Québec Symphony Orchestra as well as the National Arts Centre Symphony Orchestra (Ottawa, ON).

He plays regularly with the Orchestre Film harmonique which produces film concerts and accompanies artists such as Patrick Bruel, Mario Pelchat and Andrea Bocelli. He frequently gives chamber music concerts and solo recitals. In the winter of 2023-2024, Matt toured Quebec, Ontario and New Brunswick with Jeunesses Musicales Canada. Recently, Matt participated in the recording of the soundtracks for the films Menteuse, Mlle Bottine and the third season of the American series The White Lotus. We could also see him playing the harp in the movie Days of Happiness by Chloé Robichaud.

Among the many prizes and scholarships Matt has received, he recently won Second Place at the prestigious Orford Music Award in 2020.

In addition to his performing career, Matt teaches the harp at the École de Musique Vincent-d’Indy in Montreal and at the Conservatoire du Québec à Trois-Rivières. He is truly devoted to his students as he believes in the next generation to become aspiring musicians.
