Each year, when we are writing these lines, we tend to look back on the most recent edition and forward to the next one. For over 10 years, we have been offering the world’s greatest musicians the opportunity to join us in the exceptional adventure of the Easter Festival.
Thanks to the CIC, our founding partner, thanks to the generosity of Aline Foriel-Destezet, our patron, we bring you a vibrant festival while maintaining our strong connections with both the businesses and individuals who have supported us since the very beginning of the festival in 2013.
The leading symphonies set to perform at this year’s festival will take you on a journey through Spain, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Germany and numerous regions in France.
Our efforts to bring classical music to a younger audience continue, through our community-based Musique en partage programme as well as this year’s Petite Académie de Pâques that will provide the opportunity to young musicians from rural music schools to work, learn and rub shoulders with the world’s greatest classical musicians. Since the Festival’s inception, we have always emphasised the importance of outreach, togetherness and inclusion. This, for us, and the CIC, is an integral part of the Festival’s DNA.
We are looking forward to seeing you all at the 2025 edition of the Easter Festival !
Dominique Bluzet, executive director and Renaud Capuçon, artistic director
