Sarah Cabrol-Douat (formerly Sarah Gunton) was a student at Queechy High School between 1989 and 1992. Her mother (who was then the Music teacher at Queechy) gave her piano lessons from an early age. Then, in her grade 8 year, Sarah won an Education Department Music Scholarship and began studying with Mr. Eric Mitchell in Hobart. In 1993 after a chance encounter and invitation, Sarah left Tasmania to study music at the Moscow Conservatorium. She later won scholarships to study at the École Normale in Paris and at London’s Royal College of Music. She now lives and works in Paris and has established a reputation in Europe as a pianist – both as soloist and ensemble player.
Sarah performed to a “full-house” in Launceston at the beginning of 2013. If you missed that concert or would like to hear her again, she will be giving another recital in February. You can find out more by visiting her website or finding “ sarahcabrol-douatpianist” on Face Book.
