Taqralik Partridge started performing Inuit throatsinging professionally in 1998. Notable performances include: Museum de l'histoire naturel in Lyon, accompaniment to Arianne Moffat (Spectrum), performance with the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal and numerous performances at festivals and events across Canada.

In 2004, she moved to spoken-word performance - finding that her writing lent itself more to performance than the written word. She sometimes includes throatsinging in her performance pieces. Her work has consistently received positive reviews from publications and radio/television programs on APTN, CBC Radio One (Montréal), CBC North (Iqaluit), Montreal Mirror, Ottawa Express, the Concordian, Spirit Magazine and Shameless Magazine.

Notable performances include: repeat appearances at the Words and Music show in Montréal, Westfest (Ottawa), Toonik Tyme (Iqaluit), Riddu Riddu festival (Norway) and Beyond the Border Wales International Storytelling Festival.
