Signed to Atlantic/Warner Records at the tender age of 19, Slean has since released more than 9 albums in over 10 countries worldwide - but perhaps the most astonishing aspect of her artistry is its breadth. Over her 15 year career, the 35 year old has published two volumes of poetry, starred in short films and a movie musical (spawning two Gemini Award nominations), penned two string quartets, held numerous exhibitions of her paintings, and shared the stage with no less than seven of the country’s leading orchestras.

Classically trained from the age of 5, she routinely collaborates with cutting-edge contemporary classical ensembles like The Art of Time, and has been invited to sing world premieres by Canada’s leading living composers/professors Christos Hatzis and Glenn Buhr.
