A musical event, but I never would have dared to imagine a production of this caliber.

Piano Nocturnes, in conjunction with the Samson François International Piano Competition, have in just a few years become a must-see event in the music world.

Their national reputation continues to grow, and we must pay tribute to Christine for her genius in discovering talents poised to make their mark on the international stage.

These events are now complemented by the Spring and Fall Music Festivals in the spring and fall, which have been a great success.

Let’s thank the city of Cagnes-sur-Mer, the Alpes-Maritimes department and the South Region for their indispensable and generous support, as well the many private donors. Without them, nothing would be possible.

But one thing is certain: Gastaldian imagination still has a few wonderful surprises
