supporting the academy
Since 2023, Pauline Chandon-Moët and Château de Ferrand accompany the young artists of the Bordeaux National Opera Academy. This project is in line with Pauline Chandon-Moët’s ongoing desire to promote the development of young talent.
Every year, the estate welcomes these young artists for a special concert at the chateau.
This year, the Bordeaux National Opera Academy invites you to discover a musical programme inspired by the spirit of love, with a new concert on Sunday 7 June 2026 at 5pm, accompanied by young singers from the Milan Scala Academy.
the academy origins
In order to foster the professional integration of budding artists, in 2022 the Bordeaux National Opera initiated a first edition of the Academy project composed of twelve young artists (composer, musical director, lyrical and musical artists).
Not unlike a laboratory, this creative ensemble is accompanied by the Opéra’s permanent teams and mentors.
For the 2024/2025 season, they have worked together for several months to create in last February an free, modern and fantastical adaptation of The Barber of Seville, by Gioachino Rossini.
