Support Young Musicians: Together, Let’s Inspire the Future!
Dear friends and supporters of the Ad Manaurem 1762 association,
Thanks to your generosity and commitment, we have been able to provide talented young musicians with an exceptional week of master classes. These experiences have a transformative impact on their early careers, giving them a vital boost.
In 2025, we aim to go even further by organising two master classes – one for piano and one for string quartets – enabling 18 students to benefit from our support.
To continue this mission, we are launching a new membership and donation campaign. Every contribution matters, whether you choose to become a member, make a donation, or simply share our message with those around you.
Becoming a member means joining a passionate and engaged community while directly supporting our work. And don’t forget: for our French donors, 66% of your contribution is tax-deductible.
To join or renew your membership, visit us here:
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your continued support. Together, we can help these young artists thrive and let their talents shine.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Bruno Baudoin
Treasurer

Welcome Johannes Meissl
For our first string quartet masterclass, we are very honoured to announce the arrival of Johannes Meissl as artistic director. Johannes speaks French very well and was attracted by our unique programme and the idea of coming to Périgord. He already knows and works with our two other partners, with whom meetings are planned to prepare this master class. Without wishing to use superlatives, it's a great opportunity for us to organise such an event: for classical music specialists, the quartet is considered to be one of the finest demonstrations of the art, and the concert at the end of August promises to be the grand finale of the season.

Concert salle Gaveau (Paris)
We reunited with Denis Pascal on Friday, November 15, at the salle Gaveau for a concert featuring his two sons, Alexandre (violinist) and Aurélien (cellist), along with countertenor Paul Figuier. The program for this magnificent evening at Gaveau was dedicated to contemporary works by Bruno Coulais, Arvo Pärt, and Jean Philippe Goude. We were particularly captivated by the world premiere of Miserere and Salve Regina for voice, violin, cello, and piano by Jean Philippe Goude. Exuding profound depth through the restrained interpretation of the Pascal trio, the voice of Paul Figuier elevated us into the spirituality of this magnificent prayer of Salve Regina. The second part was dedicated to Franz Schubert and his Piano Trio No. 2, Op. 100, a masterpiece whose mastery and romanticism were deeply appreciated by the audience. Discover the Pascal Trio and Paul Figuier on their latest album, Anima Mea.

Partnerships renewed for 2025
The new season began with intensive visits to Paris, London, and Vienna. Our meetings went very well, with positive results. The three partnerships have been renewed for 2025. Now we must rise to the challenge of our success, as some are asking us to do even more. We will have to take on this new challenge, but it seems that "impossible" is not in the Ad Manaurem spirit!
