Festival Pablo Casals As one of the most respected chamber music festivals in France and, indeed, in Europe, the event organisers consistently attract soloists and ensembles of the highest quality.
Concerts are held in the beautiful abbey of Saint-Michel de Cuxà and other churches in the Prades area.
Started in 1950 in Prades, Pablo Casal’s adopted town, the festival continues to present an inspiring series of concerts played by some of the greatest musicians of our day. Pablo Casals himself participated up to the age of 90! The festival is a firm favourite of the summer calendar for any chamber music fans.
In 1976, an Academy of Music was set up to encourage and support young musicians in the art of chamber music. The student concerts are held in the last week of the festival and present a great opportunity to visit the charming villages of the Conflent whilst listening to the stars of tomorrow.
