LA BELLE SAISON

Created in 2013 on the initiative of the Théâtre des Bouffes du Nord in Paris, La Belle Saison is now a touring chamber music season presented by more than 15 theatres, festivals and concert halls. It is also a network of unique venues which, by virtue of their acoustic quality, the size of their audience or the richness of their territory, offer an immersive experience, a space for sharing between all audiences and artists in creation.

Each year, the venues work together to create and present around ten original and demanding projects, ranging from the baroque repertoire to contemporary works, performed by some sixty artists of the highest calibre. The musicians selected for each edition, be they young talents or internationally renowned soloists, travel the length and breadth of La Belle Saison to meet the public through residencies, awareness-raising and practical music workshops, and numerous exceptional concerts. La Belle Saison gives rise to around a hundred curtain-raisers each season. 

Artistic and cultural education initiatives will involve the artists of this tenth edition with several thousand beneficiaries across the country, notably as part of an annual residency in Coulommiers.

La Belle Saison is a partner of the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse and the Lyon International Chamber Music Competition as part of its mission to support young artists.

COMBO supports La Belle Saison in its general administration.
