Within this project, audience and sponsors provide the greater part of funding needed to run the Centre, the programming is taken care of by the musicians themselves, and music-lovers give commissions to young composers...</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>The reality:</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Salle-1412072128" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/123754/salle-1412072128.png"></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> The 400-seat Salle Cortot is perfectly suited to chamber music, be it piano, strings, wind instruments or voice… All are enhanced by the superb acoustics and the remarkable proximity between audience and stage.</p> <p> Thanks to extensive renovations, the Foyer has been refurbished and offers a convivial place to meet. The presence of students from the nearby École Normale de Musique provides a natural link with the Chamber Music Centre and its focus on sharing music and the discovery of young talent.</p> <p>  </p> <p> The objective is to create a place that’s full of life. Somewhere to meet musicians and music lovers, composers and students... There are also books and recordings to browse here. It’s a place that acts as a link between artists and members of the public who want to learn, to increase their knowledge and understanding of music, but most of all, to enjoy themselves !</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Programmation_2-1411653224" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/122734/PROGRAMMATION_2-1411653224.png"></p> <p> An unchanging weekly programme schedule from November to April means that audiences get into the habit of attending regularly at the same time each week, and recommending the evening performances to their friends.

An original way to satisfy the public’s desire to better understand the music they love.Une programmation hebdomadaire systématique de novembre à avril permet de fidéliser le public à des rendez-vous réguliers ou de recommander une soirée à des amis. Cette programmation est riche, simple à retenir et convient à tous les modes de vie.</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Musiciens_2-1411653380" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/122735/MUSICIENS_2-1411653380.png"></p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Troupe_musiciens-1429176488" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/186930/troupe_musiciens-1429176488.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>A troupe of Musicians</strong></p> <p> A company of top-level musicians work together under the direction of a well-known artist to work on programmes especially devised by the Centre, just like a company of actors. Their work is based not only on the works they’re performing, but also on their historical, social and biographical context.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>Young Talent</strong></p> <p> The first concert of the evening is devoted to young soloists and new ensembles (string or piano trio and string quartet) who – over the course of three to four weeks – showcase one of the masterpieces from their repertoire.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>Young composers</strong></p> <p> Between each of the evening’s two concerts, the audience is invited to listen to a short, recently composed work (10’). Crowd-funding is set up for the composers performed and the public thus commissions a new work for the following season. The year after, the Centre commissions an other work from one of these composers – allowing them to be present for three consecutive seasons at the Centre, strengthening thereby their relationship with Centre audiences.</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Site_riche-1427708145" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/179856/SITE_RICHE-1427708145.png"></p> <p>  </p> <p> A virtual exhibition will be made available to the public on the Centre’s website, containing all the resources used by the musicians during their work source material, historical documents, analysis, literary correspondence, images that inspire, philosophical writings, examples of music and traditional dance).</p> <p> The programme for these exhibitions is put together by a committee of art-scientists including musicologists, historians and literature specialists.</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Equipe-1427708256" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/179857/EQUIPE-1427708256.png"></p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>Chairman</strong> Philippe Fanjas</p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>Artistic Director</strong> Jérôme Pernoo</p> <p> <strong>General Manager</strong> Patrick Marijon</p> <p> <strong>Fundraising</strong> Patrick Petit</p> <p> <strong>Communication</strong> Thibault Prioul</p> <p> <strong>Production</strong> Jean-Baptiste Caspar</p> <p> <strong>Dramaturg</strong> Marianne Pernoo-Bécache</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="En_tete_2-1428483358" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/183640/EN_TETE_2-1428483358.jpg"></p>
