Bretagne International Saxophone Academy, 11th edition, 15th of August - 24 of August 2023
The seventh edition of the Bretagne International Saxophone Academy will be organized in Rostrenen, small city in Bretagne (Western France).
The academy will take place from 15th of August - 24 of August 2023 at the Kreiz Breizh Music School in Rostrenen. The participants arrive on 15th of August during the day and depart on 24th of August in the morning.
An Academy with a human dimension
The human dimension of the Academy is given by:
- the participants' proximity with the Academy teachers
- proximity with the families hosting the participants
Consequently, and in order to ensure ideal studying conditions, the number of participants is limited.
The Bretagne International Saxophone Academy aims to give pre-professional students an intensive preparation for concerts, conservatoire entrance exams (CRD, CRR and CNSMDP) as well as for national and international competitions.
The Academy is open for all nationalities as well as for minor participants. Lessons are given in French, English, German, Finnish or Japanese.
An intensive and comprehensive programme
To guarantee the best studying conditions, each participant receives:
- a session of 3 lessons of one hour during 3 successive days with Alexandre SOUILLART
- a session of 3 lessons of one hour during 3 successive days with Joonatan RAUTIOLA
- daily rehearsals and lessons with piano, alternating (directed by the pianist Matthieu ACAR and the saxophonist Hiroe YASUI)
