Marie-Christine Raboud–Theurillat was born on April 14th, 1948 in Monthey, west Valais, Switzerland.
Her father was a painter, her mother a pianist who was her first piano teacher.

She is the organ tutor at the Monthey Parish Church and taught classes for the piano and organ at the Cantonal Conservatory in Sion from 1990 until 2013.

She has been composing her own work since the early nineties.

Her catalogues consists of more than eighty opuses, primarily chamber music as well as sacred choral music.
Her inventory was compiled in 2017 by the Valais Media Library in Sion.
