27 April 2025

From 25 April to 27 April
14 May

The Festival des Convergences Musicales, the brainchild of Jean-Baptiste Souchon and organised in partnership with the town of Senlis, is set to make Senlis resound in the spring of 2025. A violist of international renown, this child of the Oise region, who trained at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique in Paris and also at the MDW in Vienna, is using this event to realise a deep-rooted dream: to share his love of music with the people of his home town.

The festival also includes performances and masterclasses at the Senlis Conservatoire and in schools. These encounters will give pupils the opportunity to talk to professional musicians, discover their art and immerse themselves in the world of classical music. One of the highlights of this 2025 edition will be the visit of Forces Majeures, a travelling orchestra that brings music to places where it is least expected. By combining the highest artistic standards with a close relationship with his audience, Jean-Baptiste Souchon is turning his passion into a not-to-be-missed event, where every note sounds like an invitation to marvel.
