The organisation of the festival is well underway by now but changes in the program may still be necessary. The schedule as it is now you find on the page "program". We keep it updated for you but please be aware that  it might change in time.

The participants have information about the workshop they are placed in. Individuals already have the information how to download their parts. Members of participating orchestra will get this information soon, through their orchestra or group.

 

The ingredients of the festivals are: concerts of the visiting orchestras; participation in workshop orchestras; buffets for all the participants and other possibilities to socialise. In the meantime you will have time to see Avignon as all the venues for concerts and workhops and the hotels are in walking distance of each other.

The orchestra festival is organised by  a team consisting of TIME concert organisers and board members of EOFed.

Already twelve festivals were held till now,  in different regions of Europe. Goals of these festivals are always: meeting of young and old; possibility to play great, challenging or unknown works; discovering the city of Avignon; to meet musicians from all over Europe! The festivals always provide inspiration on individual and orchestral level.
