About
In January and June, the Conservatory orchestras meet on the stage of the Salle Rossini for two concerts dedicated to sharing, discovery, and the joy of playing together.
In January, the wind ensemble and the brass & percussion ensemble offer a program with vibrant sounds, featuring original repertoire, iconic works, film music, and contemporary creations.
In June, the wind ensemble joins the 2nd cycle string orchestra, conducted by Frédéric Lubiatto, for a new orchestral gathering, bringing together the colors and energies of wind and string instruments.
Collective practices allow young musicians to develop their listening skills, musicality, and sense of teamwork, while discovering the demands and pleasures of orchestral practice. These concerts highlight the work of the students and their teachers, bringing to the stage an ensemble music that is generous, demanding, and accessible to all.
Coordination: Louise Müller-Monod & Emile Berret
