Festival d'Ambronay

Du 18 septembre au 12 octobre 2008

In 2008, we will embark on a discovery or re-discovery of women - hidden or famous - who braved the odds in order to express themselves. What was their place in history? Female poet or composer. Female performer or even inspired muse. From the Renaissance to the Baroque period, in a world where men had the power, could female musicians and singers practice their art only in secret or when they were replaced by men? The Festival of Ambronay also looks at our contemporary society and current female composers. The program under the big tent will be one of traditional music whereas the abbey will host programs from the classical repertory.
From September 18 to October 12, 2008
Complete schedule is available the beginning of June by calling +33 (0)4 74 38 74 04 or at www.ambronay.org
