Daniel Bédard (born September 19, 1957) is a Canadian musician, composer, arranger, record producer, and audio engineer.[1][2]

Early years

The product of a musical family, Bédard grew up in Sudbury's Donovan neighbourhood, debuting at 14 as a singer/guitarist-pianist with local groups.[2] He attended Macdonald-Cartier high school, which had a thriving arts' program.[3] He also has reminisced about formative influences while attending the music program at Cambrian College, collaborations with other musicians, and the Sudbury music scene.[4][5][6]

Career

In his multifaceted artistry, Bédard has been described as a "juggler" who approaches each project with a child's curiosity and the rigour of someone constantly in search of new forms and expressions.[7]

As a composer, Bédard's most extensive multimedia collaboration has been with the production team at Science North in Sudbury, although he has worked with a number of Canadian and American institutions.[2][8] In theatre, his closest association has been with the Théâtre du Nouvel-Ontario,[2][9] while in film he has worked with Next Phase Motion Pictures in Sudbury, among others.[10]

As a performer, Bédard has appeared in groups and festivals such as Northern Lights Festival Boréal and La Nuit sur l'étang, including as music director.[2] [11] He has shared the stage and worked in various capacities, including as producer and sound engineer, on albums with Franco-Ontarian musicians such as Stef Paquette.[2] Cage, an electroacoustic band named after composer John Cage, is headed by Bédard.[12]

Bédard toured nationally with the troubadour, Pierre Germain, as musician and arranger for the children's album, Pierre et le Papillon.[13][2] He also toured Chile and Argentina as well as the province of Ontario with the Chilean-born singer-songwriter, Mauricio Montecinos.[7]

He collaborated with the poets Robert Dickson[14] and Michel Dallaire,[2][15][16] the photographer and poet, Mary Green,[17] and the visual artist, Michel Galipeau.[2][18]

The celebratory song, "Levons nos voix," was arranged and produced by Bédard for the 400th anniversary of the Francophone presence in Ontario.[19] He also wrote the opening music for the 10th annual Franco-Ontarian Games.

A Laurentian University graduate, Bédard taught electronic music, composition and music theory at the university from 1988 to 2009.[2][20]
