How to support Les Rencontres Musicales et Scientifiques

Les Rencontres Musicales et Scientifiques are conceived and organised by volontary members of the association "Sur La Touche" every year. 

In order to fund this project, we have two major resources: public funding on the one hand, private sponsoring on the other hand. Individual as well as companies or fondations can support the Rencontres Musicales et Scientifiques. 

For individuals, donations might benefit from tax reduction in France of 66% of the total donation, proved by an administrative voucher the association Sur La Touche delivers.

For companies, donations might benefit from a tax reduction in France of 60% of the total donation, proved by an administrative voucher the association Sur La Touche delivers.

"In 'Vie Secrète', Pascal Quignard wrote 'a real musician doesn't hesitate to say one cannot listen to music with eyes open.' However, you need to open your eyes to enjoy the pleasant town on the borders of the Loire where Célia and Elisabeth have been organised the RMS. Open your eyes to take part in the roundtables where composers, musicians and music lovers are reunited. Open your eyes to meet talented people who know how to share the mysteries of musical art to both profane and initiated public. And finally close your eyes under the arches of the little church where classical and contemporary works are played and where you can savor the pleasure and privilege to discover pieces side to side with composers."

Michel Delpech et Bruno Leroy-Roscamp
