STAY FOR MELOMANS - discovery and deepening of the knowledge of the musical repertoire

Music and nature lovers, musicians of all levels! What could be better than a weekend dedicated to listening to the music you love, all in the enchanting surroundings of Priscault Lake. Join us to perfect your knowledge of the repertoire, to discover new works, to discuss, exchange, learn and share your passion for music.

2023 Theme : Music and spirituality

Music has often been described as a spiritual language. Among composers, from the Middle Ages to the present, spirituality has often been the creative source of their work. This workshop is an overview of the connections between music and spirituality: How do composers use it? How is this reflected in their works, in their choice of instrumentation, in the timbre of their music, and in the modes of play of their performances? As your dedicated teachers delve into the lives of these creators of the spirit, from Guillaume Dufay to Eliane Radigue, Antonio Vivaldi, Francis Poulenc and Arvo Pärt, they will reveal the mysteries of their art!
