9-19 Août  2008

Bienvenue sur le site du Stage de guitare au château de Ligoure, un des plus ancien en Europe.

Ce 31ème stage de guitare se tiendra du samedi 9 au mardi 19 août 2008. Au cœur du Limousin, entouré de ses anciennes fermes, le magnifique château de Ligoure a conservé son caractère original. Un lieu idyllique, idéal pour un stage intensif.

Le stage fut fondé en 1977 par Carel Harms, alors professeur au Conservatoire National Supérieur de Paris. Puis, Jean-Marc Roulet et Raymond Giraud le dirigèrent durant vingt années.

Pour cette 31 ème session, j’ai eu le privilège de me voir offrir la direction du stage à partir de l’été 2008. C'est donc avec impatience et enthusiasme que j'attend le mois d'Aout.

  Welcome to the web site of the Guitar Course at the Chateau de Ligoure, one of the oldest courses in Europe.

The 31 st Guitar Course takes place from Saturday August 9th till Tuesday August 19th , 2008. Situated in the heart of the Limousin region, near Limoges, the magnificent Chateau de Ligoure is surrounded by farmhouses and retains many of its original features. Such an idyllic environment is ideal for a highly concentrated course.

The course was founded in 1977 by Carel Harms, professor then of the C.N.R.S in Paris. Jean Mark Roulet and Raymond Giraud directed the course for 20 years. Now running in its 31 st year, it is my privilege to be offered the direction of the course as from the summer 2008.  I just can't waite the arrival of the month ofAugust.

Since it’s beginning   some ‘traditions’ were established; friendly contact between all participants, teachers and guests and a rather small number of pupils. Since there are a limited number of places, please register early; first come first served !

See you there!
