From the artist's website:

Monique Angele is a unique emerging Canadian/Australian operatic piano pop singer-songwriter. Her music blends both classical and pop elements in a style that exhibits both pianistic finesse and soaring vocals. 

Monique's performance history makes her no stranger to the stage, possessing a background in solo piano and voice repertoire, opera and musical theatre. Originally honing her vocal skills in classical opera, she decided that performing her own music was her calling. Her live performances of her original music always convey a charismatic and elegant response from audiences and have won rave reviews wherever she performs. She has performed extensively throughout Canada, Australia and the UK. 

Her songs range from instrumental complexity and virtuosic vocals to simple and refined moments of bliss. Whether it be about heartbreak, seduction, anger, or lighthearted themes, she delivers honest emotions to the listener.

From Team Derringer:

Monique's soaring vocals and accomplished piano skills shine through each of her songs. Fans of Queen, Elton John, and Evanescence would do well to check out Monique's music!
