Classical Music and Literature Festival in Charente-Maritime
For over 20 years, the Musiques au Pays de Pierre Loti Festival has celebrated the encounter between classical music and literature. In May, concerts and conferences take over Rochefort and the Marennes-Oléron region for a musical and literary journey in the footsteps of the writer.
Created over two decades ago, the Musiques au Pays de Pierre Loti Festival pays tribute to the Rochefort-born writer by offering a program that combines classical music and literary references. The festival primarily takes place at the Théâtre de la Coupe d'Or in Rochefort and in the Marennes-Oléron region.
Each edition explores a theme inspired by Pierre Loti's work. Chamber music, French mélodie, and symphonic repertoire are presented in concerts performed by quality ensembles. Conferences and educational activities complement the program.
Beyond Rochefort, the festival extends its reach across the region with concerts in various heritage sites in Charente-Maritime, thus creating an accessible musical and cultural journey for everyone.
