Since its construction, the château has been owned by the Beaumont-Beynac family, who continue to restore it to this day. The family has a long musical tradition, and has been organizing chamber music concerts for over 30 years.

Its history is closely linked to its priory, built in the 11th century, and its castle. The church, listed as a historic monument since 1862, dates from the same period. The closing concert takes place in this exceptional setting. We want to make it an unforgettable moment for our young talents performing in front of a large audience and for our special guests (agents, journalists, VIPs, etc.).

EDITORIAL JANUARY 2026 Save the Date: Q1 2026 News… Dear Members and Friends of Ad Manaurem 1762, As you know, our association’s activities during the first quarter are dedicated to renewing our partnerships with major conservatories and organizing the selection process. To this end, and as we do every year, we will be visiting Paris, Vienna, London, and Zurich. We have opened 7 spots for pianists and 12 for quartets (3 ensembles). Some conservatories have already begun their selections, which have been made easier by our growing reputation for excellence—thanks in large part to the word-of-mouth from our alumni who cherish wonderful memories of their time in Périgord. An important moment will be our Annual General Meeting. Please note that, contrary to our previous announcement, it will now take place on Friday, April 10, starting at 5:30 PM at the Salle des Fêtes in Saint-Martin-de-Fressengeas (instead of Saturday, April 11).

  • Ad Manaurem 1762 | Mécénat pour les jeunes musiciens

    Ad Manaurem 1762, mécénat pour les jeunes musiciens. Notre objectif est de soutenir des jeunes musiciens à un moment de leur carrière où ils en ont besoin. EDITORIAL MARCH 2025 For the Love of Music, For the Love of Art Dear friends and supporters of the Ad Manaurem 1762 association, Music has always been, for me, like painting for the ears —colors that vibrate, textures that unfold, light and shadow that dance in sound. Just as a brushstroke can capture a fleeting emotion, a single note can hold the weight of a lifetime. This is why I love music with the same passion that I pour into painting and photography. And that is why I believe it is essential to help young musicians shape their own artistic identity. With Ad Manaurem 1762, I have the great joy of turning this conviction into action. This year, we are offering young conservatory students the opportunity to participate in an exceptional masterclass in Périgord – a place where history, beauty, and music come together. For a week, under the guidance of great masters, these young artists refine their technique, push their limits, and deepen their understanding of their art. I know what it means to dedicate oneself to art. The long hours, the doubts, the relentless pursuit of something just beyond reach. But I also know the joy of creating, the fire that burns when inspiration strikes, the irreplaceable feeling of being fully alive in one’s art. And I know, too, how important it is to have someone who believes in you, who opens a door when you need it most. This is what patronage is about. It is giving back to music what it has given me: wonder, passion, and the certainty that art – in all its forms – makes the world richer, deeper, and more beautiful. To the young musicians embarking on this journey: may this week in Périgord be for you a discovery, a challenge, a magic. And may music always illuminate your path. Amitiés, Priska Wallimann Design & Marketing NEWS DECEMBER 2024 Welcome Johannes Meissl For our first string quartet masterclass, we are very honoured to announce the arrival of Johannes Meissl as artistic director. Johannes speaks French very well and was attracted by our unique programme and the idea of coming to Périgord. He already knows and works with our two other partners, with whom meetings are planned to prepare this master class. Without wishing to use superlatives, it's a great opportunity for us to organise such an event: for classical music specialists, the quartet is considered to be one of the finest demonstrations of the art, and the concert at the end of August promises to be the grand finale of the season. BIOGRAPHIE DECEMBER 2024 Giving Tuesday x CNSMDP On this Giving Tuesday, the Conservatoire de Paris pays tribute to all those who support their students. Thanks to you, 1 in 4 students can continue their studies and share their talent with the world. Discover a day at the Conservatoire and the impact of your generosity. 15 NOVEMBER 2024 Concert salle Gaveau (Paris) We reunited with Denis Pascal on Friday, November 15, at the salle Gaveau for a concert featuring his two sons, Alexandre (violinist) and Aurélien (cellist), along with countertenor Paul Figuier. The program for this magnificent evening at Gaveau was dedicated to contemporary works by Bruno Coulais, Arvo Pärt, and Jean Philippe Goude. We were particularly captivated by the world premiere of Miserere and Salve Regina for voice, violin, cello, and piano by Jean Philippe Goude. Exuding profound depth through the restrained interpretation of the Pascal trio, the voice of Paul Figuier elevated us into the spirituality of this magnificent prayer of Salve Regina. The second part was dedicated to Franz Schubert and his Piano Trio No. 2, Op. 100, a masterpiece whose mastery and romanticism were deeply appreciated by the audience. Discover the Pascal Trio and Paul Figuier on their latest album, Anima Mea. OCTOBER 2024 Partnerships renewed for 2025 The new season began with intensive visits to Paris, London, and Vienna. Our meetings went very well, with positive results. The three partnerships have been renewed for 2025. Now we must rise to the challenge of our success, as some are asking us to do even more. We will have to take on this new challenge, but it seems that "impossible" is not in the Ad Manaurem spirit! Photo: With Matthew Ross at the Royal Academy of Music in London
