The symphony session brings together the entire orchestra for a month in August
The summer session kicks off on August 1st at the Saline royale in Arc-et-Senans, within the enchanting setting of an architecture classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Additionally, the session benefits from the new hall at the Saline, the salle Claude-Nicolas-Ledoux. It begins with an initial period guided by fifteen soloists from French orchestras to work on the various pieces in the program. From August 11th, Michael Schønwandt takes charge of the ensemble.
On August 16th at 8:00 PM, the orchestra starts its summer tour at the Opéra de Vichy before the Berlioz Festival on August 18th. The OFJ then returns to the Saline, where it will perform on August 27th under the direction of Kristiina Poska, before rejoining the Berlioz Festival on August 28th. The summer session concludes in the iconic Hamburg venue, the Elbphilharmonie, on August 30th.

WORKSHOPS
In addition to rehearsals and symphonic concerts, musicians have the opportunity to attend various workshops designed to prepare them for their future careers: musicians’ rights, dealing with stage fright, working on posture (learning to manage your body and take care of it to play better and prevent avoidable pain), entrepreneurship, understanding the professional environment, etc.
CHAMBER MUSIC AND CULTURAL OUTREACH
Becoming an orchestral musician in 2024 means being able to pass on your passion for the symphonic repertoire to different audiences of all ages and backgrounds. At the OFJ, musicians are trained in this key skill within the framework of chamber music, which involves leaving the confines of the Saline to meet new audiences!
Numerous concerts will take place in August, in nursing homes, children’s activity centres, multimedia libraries, public spaces and so on, to share the repertoire and talk about it passionately with people who don’t necessarily go to auditoriums. Max Dozolme, a journalist with France Musique (Maxxi Classique) is this year’s instructor for these concerts that combine music and cultural outreach. You can also listen to the OFJ musicians in various venues throughout the region and in Dijon’s Auditorium for chamber music concerts.
