A musical week in the heart of the Mediterranean! As part of the twenty-fifth edition of the “Rencontres Musicales de Méditerranée”, the Association des Jeunesses Musicales de Méditerranée offers island audiences throughout Corsica a musical week of the highest artistic quality. Nearly 200 performers and musical personalities representing the leading conservatories, institutes and national music schools in the major capitals of the Mediterranean region - notably Egypt, Spain, Italy, France, Tunisia and Portugal - join forces with Corsican artists for a week of musical sharing across the island. All concerts organized by the association are free of charge.
The highlight of the event is the gala evening on Saturday, November 9 at 8:30 p.m.: in the first part, all the artists and musicians offer the public a glimpse of their specific music. In the second half, they join forces in a symphonic formation, under the direction of Italian maestro Alessandro Bombonati, to accompany a Corsican artist performing a Corsican song, with arrangements by Alberto Intrieri from Milan.
