In this episode of Turning Points, Patricia Killeen welcomed Franco-Irish soprano Fiona

Fauchois. Fiona began her musical training as a pianist in Paris while studying art history at

the École du Louvre, before studying voice with Frédéric Gindraux at the Haute École de

composers, won first prize in the Osez! creation competition.
