Soloist Academy

Ideally located near the Massif du Jura, and a ten-minute drive from Geneva airport, the Academy and its Festival take place in a peaceful setting conducive to quality work in various locations in the Pays de Gex.

Ideally located close to the Massif du Jura, and a ten-minute drive from Geneva airport, the Académie and its Festival take place in a peaceful setting conducive to quality work at various venues in the Pays de Gex.

Initiated in 2016, the timid clarinet summer courses have gradually evolved into a vast international music festival welcoming artists from all over the world. The Soloist Academy's wall of fame includes names such as Kazuki Yamada, Natalia Gutman, Jonathan Nott, Jacques Zoon, Itamar Golan, Karl Leister, Jean-Jacques Balet and many more.

Wherever possible, we like to engage in dialogue with our guests. Our audience remains active through direct contact with the artists, participating in the lottery and awarding prizes.

Opening

All year round. Performed in July at Fort l'Ecluse.
