Festival Notes d'Été à Irancy

8th Edition — July 2025

For its eighth edition, the Festival Notes d'Été à Irancy offered from July 23 to 27, 2025 a particularly rich program, with six concerts spanning a wide musical spectrum. The festival opened the week with a satellite concert at the Abbaye Saint-Germain d'Auxerre on July 11, before taking over the wine village for five exceptional days.

Pianist and co-founder Guillaume Sigier also performed in a notable romantic recital, featuring four Scherzos by Chopin, Sonata No. 2 by Rachmaninov, and excerpts from Schumann's Kreisleriana, on a Shigeru Kawai piano. The Bachtrack review praised the quality of the performance and the intimate atmosphere of the Saint-Germain church, where spectators are seated very close to the musicians.

The Festival Spirit

Each concert was followed by a tasting of Irancy AOC wines, in keeping with the festival's tradition. This 8th edition once again confirmed the vitality of an event that brings together musicians and winemakers in a shared love of beauty, in the heart of an exceptional Burgundian vineyard.
