After a decade as a successful early childhood Kindermusik educator, Jocelyne Baribeau got caught up in her own magic, tangled if you will in a world of puppets and boas to become the irrepressible, the bubbly, ever popular Madame Diva.

In spite of her flamboyant, eccentric self, Madame Diva’s underlying goal en anglais et in French, is to take her young audience on a journey to explore an absolutely inclusive world wrapping children with a comforting blanket of melody and insightful lyrics that were noted as some of the most poignant of 2009 by the juries of the Western Canadian Music Award’s and Canadian Folk Music Award’s.
