The Festival of Saint Chartier is 26 !

The 26th Saint-Chartier International Gathering of Instrument-Makers and Master Pipers has just finished. To see what happened before going to the next edition in 2002 just check our live report on the Internet (in french )...here !

To be discovered this year :
There will be workshops with Marc PERRONE, Jean BLANCHARD, Patrick BOUFFARD and others (from the 9th - 11th July).

This year approximately 130 luthiers will display their work, and a special feature will be the presence of 10 craftsmen from Morocco.

Around 20 concerts will be staged and on the 13th, DUO BERTRAND has been given "carte blanche" for an original performance dedicated to a rare bagpipe 'la veuze". To round it all off, on the 15th, a grand concert-ball will take place in front of the château with Marc PERRONE.

And much else besides...
In Saint-Chartier, music is everywhere, night and day...
