"JOIE DE VIVRE" Dans la Nuit

The idea for this festival is to hold a small but extraordinary series of events with selected chamber music. In collaboration with a group

International musicians should primarily play works by French composers that are not played that often. It was important that this music is refreshing and heartwarming. The “Joie de vivre” festival should provide the ideal framework for making these interesting and fine pieces of music sound.

The title for this festival was not chosen by chance: After the long period of abstinence due to Corona, “Joie de vivre”, or “Joy of Life”, should refer to the regained joy of making music and listening.
