Jeanine De Bique: "It doesn't matter where you come from"
By Caroline Taylor
Issue 154 (November/December 2018)
I went to St. Gabriel's RC School in San Fernando, and was in choir participating in the Music Festival and SanFest. I had a love for music, and was very good at it. I believe it helped my school work, so I began entering examinations for piano up until professional studies level.
Our lives changed when my mum had to move to Port of Spain for work. I transferred to St. Joseph's Convent, Port of Spain. The choir director there and my piano teacher said to me, "You know, you could have a career in this." One thing led to another, and I got into the Manhattan School of Music. I did my undergrad, master's, and then one year of professional studies. And from there it started.
