About me
I’m Trésor Otshudi — an award-winning singer, choral conductor, composer, educator, and ordained pastor based in Vancouver, British Columbia. I believe deeply in the power of music to uplift, connect, and transform lives.
For more than twenty years, I’ve had the privilege of performing, teaching, and leading choirs that unite artistic excellence with spiritual depth. I founded Trésor Music Ministry and the Juste Chanter Gospel Choir to bring people together through music that bridges cultures, faiths, and generations.
I’m also the author of three books exploring voice, worship, and musical leadership, including Juste Chanter: A Dreamer Who Just Wanted to Sing, Worship & Theology: A Systematic Guide for Worship Pastors, and Interpreting Mozart’s Requiem: Analytical Foundations and Conducting Practice in the Introitus.
Alongside my professional work, I continue to grow as an artist and scholar while completing an Artist Diploma in Voice Performance at the Vancouver Academy of Music and a Master of Music in Choral Conducting at Messiah University.
My mission is simple: to help others find their voice, lead with purpose, and allow music to speak to the soul.
To God be the glory.

Juste Chanter Gospel Choir
The Juste Chanter Gospel Choir was founded more than ten years ago in Toronto, born from my desire to create a musical community that celebrates faith, joy, and diversity. What began as a small group of passionate singers quickly became a movement — a space where voices united beyond language and culture to share hope through gospel music.
When I later moved to Langley to study at Trinity Western University, earning my Bachelor of Arts in Music, I relaunched the choir with a renewed vision: to combine musical excellence with spiritual depth. Over the years, Juste Chanter has grown into a vibrant network of singers across Metro Vancouver, including choirs in Surrey, Burnaby, and online, as well as collaborations with community organizations and churches.
In 2025, the choir celebrated its 10th anniversary, marking a decade of music, friendship, and transformation.
This season, I’m taking a pause from leading regular rehearsals to focus on my graduate studies and on developing future projects with professional singers, while preparing the next chapter of Juste Chanter Gospel Choir.
