pmo in bourges

Inaugurated in October 2022, the PMO’s new residence in Bourges is a major project co-constructed with the City of Bourges, the Conservatory and the Maison de la Culture as well as with a whole network of local partners, as part of Bourges 2028, Bourges’ bid to become the European Capital of Culture.

“There are some encounters that feel like they were meant to be… Bourges is part of this great moment in the life of the Paris Mozart Orchestra! To be welcomed with such joy, confidence and esteem is a great responsibility.

So it’s with enthusiasm but also gravity that we enter our second year of residency in Bourges, proud to be an orchestra associated with the Maison de la Culture directed by Olivier Atlan, eager to deepen our knowledge of the secrets and cultural treasures of this beautiful city, and to share even more our love of music for all!”

Claire Gibault, Artistic and Musical Director of the Paris Mozart Orchestra

The PMO intends to reach out to all audiences and to multiply exchanges and collaborations with the city’s emblematic cultural venues, such as the Maison de la Culture and the Conservatory, as well as with the region’s schools, colleges, high schools, hospitals, retirement homes, and even prisons.

What will the PMO do in Bourges?

Great concerts with a popular and demanding program
The inauguration of Orchestre Au Bahut in a dozen establishments in Bourges and throughout the Centre-Val de Loire region
The invitation of La Maestra laureates for a series of concerts, meetings and masterclasses in public

The Paris Mozart Orchestra invites individuals and companies to commit to the PMO’s residence in Bourges within its Patrons’ Circle.

We assume a strong societal commitment. We believe passionately that artistic and aesthetic choices have a meaning. That the encounter with art can change the course of a life.
