The Orchestre Métropolitain is delighted to welcome Isabelle Pecqueur as Senior Director of Philanthropy at the Orchestre Métropolitain, effective December 9th!

With over 15 years of experience in philanthropic development in academic, hospital, and community organizations, Isabelle has distinguished herself within major institutions.

Most recently, under her leadership, the Faculty of Arts and Sciences at the Université de Montréal has made major philanthropic strides. She has successfully guided visionary volunteers and inspired the confidence of numerous donors, whose exceptional support has left its mark on the history of the University.

In her new role, Isabelle will lead the Orchestre Métropolitain’s Philanthropy Department and work closely with the executive leadership, the board of directors, and community partners to support the OM’s artistic and social ambitions.

Alongside Yannick Nézet-Séguin and a passionate team, I look forward to putting my philanthropic expertise to work in the service of music, and with creativity and boldness, to make it ever more accessible and unifying”
