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.

A center that is both a music school and a musical services facility for artistic creation. You'll find courses in instruments (classical and modern guitar, singing, drums, piano, band and ensemble direction), arrangements, transcriptions and compositions for all levels and ages. It's an information center that organizes workshops, prepares students for entry to conservatoires and grandes écoles, and helps organize concerts and artistic projects. A professional teaching team does its utmost to support you.

What if music could change the world? In Pau, this utopia is taken very seriously. For the past fifteen years, a fine team led by conductor Fayçal Karoui has been sowing the seeds of music in the hearts and fingers of hundreds of children from every district. Instruments are loaned free of charge, and a restored former convent has become a place for learning and sharing. 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!
