The festival offers 50 ateliers, lasting 4 to 8 days and ending with a public concert. The ateliers are made up of 4 levels and the majority of them are open to everybody. At each level you can find the greatest variety of musical genres and choir types, each atelier differing in
length (some ateliers include a day off).
Different choirs can apply to the ateliers: complete choirs, groups of singers who are part of the same choir (even if they are unable to make up the numbers to perform), choirs divided into different ateliers, single singers. Indicate three ateliers of your choice and apply by
November 30th: you will be guaranteed your participation in at least one of the three!
Discovery ateliers are one-morning sessions that will be offered throughout the entire duration of the festival. They can be chosen before or on the spot and they deal with specific vocal and choral areas satisfying many of your curiosities. The four-day ateliers and the
discovery ateliers enable you to think creatively: you can combine two four-day ateliers (part I and part II) creating interesting combinations (Gregorian and live electronics, for example), you can add one or more discovery ateliers during your free day or after one of the main ateliers, or you can decide to attend only discovery ateliers for the whole duration of the festival… you can place as you wish the pieces of your mosaic!
