Musique Cordiale is an annual summer festival, bringing together music, excitement and fun. Each year we invite a mix of established musicians with selected up-and-coming young talent from all over Europe to sing and play for our festival audiences, who include local and other French music-lovers as well an equally international  – and loyal – group of people of all ages drawn to the area for Musique Cordiale. Members of the orchestra and choir form  a variety of ensembles and, together with soloists, rehearse ready to share top-quality performances of classical music (and a little jazz) in an inviting Provencal ambiance that combines the food, wine, warmth and smells of summer in Provence with a programme of wonderful sights and sounds. Intimate up-close chamber music and instrumental recitals in charming medieval chapels are interspersed between orchestral masterpieces and resounding choral oratorios in larger churches, town squares, vineyards and an amphitheatre that thrills as the sun sets.

Making exquisite music together in a convivial atmosphere – share the performance!
