Chamber Music Festival

The cultural diversity of the French capital has always been an inexhaustible source of inspiration for artists. From the Belle Époque to the fin de siècle, the années folles and the avant-garde, Paris has always been a center of creativity.

The Center for Chamber Music, founded in 2022, is proud to be able to present a musical cross-section of this artistic wealth with the festival. Together with students, teachers and renowned guests, it offers an unforgettable experience. Works by numerous composers who have worked in the city will be performed: from Couperin to Saariaho, with a special focus on the jubilarian Gabriel Fauré.
