It was in this context that our artistic director, David Molard Soriano, presented a masterclass given by our principal cello Benoit Foiadelli.

Rencontres musicales d'Ainay-le-Vieil, masterclass, David Molard-Soriano, surrounded by participants at the Saint-Amand-Montrond music school.

Four students from music schools in Saint-Amand, Issoudun and Vierzon enjoyed a 3-hour session in these beautiful premises.

Thanks to director Émilie Poingt and cello teacher Marianne Osinski-Millet, as well as pianist Grégoire Dors.

Finally, Benoît Foiadelli performed the minuet from Bach's first suite, much to the delight of the students and their families! Solo cellist with the Orchestre Symphonique de Gironde, Benoît Foiadelli gave a recital of Bach's first two suites at the first edition of the festival in August 2022.
