For more than a quarter of a century, the Festival des Heures Musicales has brought together internationally renowned artists and an audience of music lovers enchanted by the quality of the program. Organized by the association Les Heures Musicales de Biot, this festival has become, over the years, an essential cultural event in the heart of the Alpes-Maritimes.
Due to ongoing renovation work at the church of Biot, this year the Festival des Heures Musicales will be held at “La Maison du Coeur,” a beautiful symbol.
This year, Liliane Valsecchi, the Artistic Director of the Festival, presents a high-end program but with very different formations and concerts featuring the first-time appearance in Biot of magnificent artists.
With the same demand for quality, she offers to introduce the audience to masterpieces of the classical repertoire, authentic interpretations, and unprecedented ensemblesโฆ
