Music lessons Pyrénées-Atlantiques

For nearly thirty years, this association has been offering a different approach to learning music from that of a conservatory. The teaching, provided by music professionals, focuses on musical creation, the discovery of sounds, the soundscape and perception. From 18-month-olds to 15-year-olds, everyone can experiment with creative music. Advanced courses and training workshops are aimed at adults and professionals. The aim is to give a different vision of music and raise awareness of all aspects of the world of sound.

The concerts, each one crazier than the last, are played at the bottom of buildings, in halls large and small, and bring together an emotional crowd. Proof that Venezuelan conductor Gustavo Dudamel's orchestra of solidarity has spread throughout the world and... all the way to Pau! Long live El Camino!
