The classical session commences on October 30th at the Saline royale in Arc-et-Senans. Under the direction of Julien Chauvin, this year’s session marks an unprecedented partnership with Proquartet, a program for professional development in chamber music. The young musicians of the OFJ will collaborate with the Pantoum Trio, winners of the 2023 ARD Competition, exploring Beethoven’s Triple Concerto. The orchestra will also work on Mozart’s Symphony No. 39. Performances are scheduled at the Saline royale and at MC2 Grenoble on November 6, 2024.

The classical session allows the musicians to come together in half the usual ensemble size, focusing on repertoire from the 18th century (Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, etc.). Over the course of a week, the orchestra will work with trainers specialized in historically informed practices and orchestras dedicated to this repertoire. Brass sections, for example, will have the opportunity to try out 18th-century instruments, while string sections will work with 18th-century bows. All musicians will have the opportunity to explore questions of editing and interpretation.
