For more than 30 years, the Conservatory for adults has offered Tourangeaux the opportunity to learn music theory and practice an instrument, whether you are a beginner, amateur or experienced. The courses are given in the Jean de Ockeghem room, in the former Saint-Denis church, near Place Châteauneuf. You have the opportunity to practice piano, violin, cello, guitar, flute and singing. It is important to note that the practice is oriented towards chamber music, which has been increasingly successful for several years. For more information, do not hesitate to come and meet the professionals on Wednesdays and Fridays in September, from 4pm to 6pm.
