A great experience that ends in the most beautiful way. After having been sensitized for three years to classical music and the practice of an instrument.

“These have been three great years. The children have met the music, but also the professionals. It has been good moments of sharing,” explains the conductor Olivier Boy who supervised them.
“It was joy. But it’s going to be stressful playing in front of 2,000 people,” enthuse the children. Good concert to them!
