Clarinetist François Houle has followed a musical path few others have travelled. He is a true innovator and pioneer of the instrument, opening sonic vistas in the most imaginative ways possible. François has released CDs on several labels and has toured internationally. He has twice been listed by Downbeat magazine as a "Talent Deserving Wider Recognition" and was hailed as a "Rising Star" in Downbeat's 2008 Critics' Poll. According to the LA Times' Mark Swed, Houle is "a spectacularly versatile clarinetist who appears to have no limitations stylistically or sonically."
