Fête de la Musique 2010

Fête de la Musique 2010

10/11/2009: Fête de la Musique 2010 – Appel à candidature
ENVIE DE PARTICIPER A LA FETE DE LA MUSIQUE?
Alors, clique ici et inscris-toi à la plateforme.

Depuis l’an 2000, l’ASBL Fête de la Musique a pour but de promouvoir la Fête de la Musique qui se déroule, chaque année, le 21 juin, jour du solstice d’été. Pour éviter aux nombreux événements organisés pour l’occasion de se concurrencer et afin de permettre à un maximum de musiciens de participer à l’événement, la Fête de la Musique s'étendra cette année sur les dates du 18, 19, 20 et 21 juin pour permettre au public d’assister à un maximum de concerts dans diverses localités.

La Fête de la Musique est la célébration de la musique vivante de tous les genres, de toutes les couleurs et de tous les goûts. Elle est aussi un appel à la participation spontanée et gratuite et s’adresse aussi bien aux individus qu’aux ensembles, amateurs ou professionnels, pratiquant le chant ou un instrument de musique. Tous les concerts dans le cadre de la Fête de la Musique sont toujours gratuits pour le public.

Grâce à l’engagement de l'association Fête de la Musique, de nos partenaires et de nos sponsors, de plus en plus d’organisateurs locaux adhèrent à cette merveilleuse idée et de plus en plus de musiciens et ensembles désirent y participer. Des demandes de groupes du Luxembourg, mais aussi de toute la Grande-Région ainsi que du monde entier nous parviennent tous les ans.

La plateforme Internet
***************************

Depuis son lancement en 2005, notre plateforme Internet rencontre un écho grandissant auprès des artistes luxembourgeois, mais aussi dans les régions frontalières de manière à ce que nous puissions comptabiliser 73 groupes et artistes que nous avons proposé à tous nos partenaires pour leur programmation en 2009. Cette plateforme est accessible via notre site (www.fetedelamusique.lu) et les artistes peuvent s'y inscrire dès maintenant et jusqu'au 29 janvier 2010.

L'ASBL Fête de la Musique ne fait que regrouper les données des groupes et conseille les partenaires locaux en cas de besoin. En cas d'intérêt pour un artiste ou groupe, les organisateurs contacteront les artistes directement.

Libre aux musiciens de prendre contact directement avec les organisateurs pour manifester leur intérêt à participer à une Fête de la Musique en particulier. Vous trouverez les coordonnées des organisateurs sur notre site.

Pour s'inscrire sur la plateforme, il suffit d'envoyer les documents suivants à l'adresse: info[AT]fetedelamusique[DOT]lu

Bonne continuation à tous!

A bientôt,
