Geneviève Beauchamp holds a Master’s Degree of Divinity from University of Dubuque Theological Seminary.  She received a Master’s Degree in Piano Performance from the University of South Florida and a Bachelor of Music Degree from the Université de Sherbrooke, Québec, Canada.  She was ordained in January 2023 as Associate Pastor of Music and Worship at Church of the Palms, where she oversees worship in general, and directs the 70-member Chancel Choir, the Jubilee Handbell Choir, and  coordinates additional musical groups and musical events. 

Prior to her time at Church of the Palms, Ms. Beauchamp served as Choral Director at Bee Ridge Presbyterian Church for six years. She is currently Artistic Director of the Sarasota Choral Society, where she has led the Chorus in their annual performance of Handel’s Messiah since 2009.  She has often invited the Choral Society singers to join the church choir for a spring performance, and she also prepared the singers for a production of Messiah at Carnegie Hall. 

In 2007, she started a community children’s chorus, Sarasota Young Voices.  She led Sarasota Young Voices on national and international tours, where they performed in some of the most memorable venues of America and Europe, including the beautiful Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris.  Ms. Beauchamp retired from this position in the summer of 2023, following a successful last tour to Scotland.  

Ms. Beauchamp has completed four levels of conducting through Choral Music Experience with Doreen Rao.  In 2015, she obtained the Artist Teacher Certification through the same program.  She has also been guest conductor at various All-County Chorus events in different counties of Florida.

Ms. Beauchamp shares her passion for music with her husband, William, and two adult and married  daughters, Ariane and Daphne.
