«This
chamber music workshop at the foot of the Luberon mountain is a pure joy.
The participants are generally very proficient musicians so that quite
difficult works can be studied. Instruction is on a high professional
level, with an ambition to tackle the fundamental issues of chamber music
performance : precision, dynamics, colour, expression, leading to deeper
understanding of the material and of the activity as such. The constructive
yet candid criticism has a long-term impact on subsequent playing back
home. I am looking forward to the 2006 encounter .» |

«Thank
you, Philippe, for those magic days – and evenings- where one can
be completely serious, frivolous, rigorous relaxed, passionate. I had
dreamed about it for a long time : Schubertiades do exist ! » |

«I
have been coming to this workshop for several years. I apreciate the quality
of the musical work accomplished in a very convivial atmosphere. We meet
people of all professional backgrounds from all countries. We spend a
week of great musical richness and friendship. And at the end of each
workshop one says: 'we’ll
see you next year'.» |

«I
know Summer courses in Europe, but it was my first experience in France.
First, I had a slight worry about the language, as I do not speak any
French, but it was totally unnecessary. I enjoyed communications, lessons,
concerts and tourism around the region. It was really a great experience.» |

«Besides
a thorough study of two pieces with competent teachers displaying a perfect
understanding of the high level amateur musician’s standpoint, this
workshop offers a session of initiation to contemporary music and also,
in a warm and convivial atmosphere, numerous possibilities for spontaneous
encounters of musicians who want to share the pleasure of reading chamber
music scores .» |

«Coming
from Singapore, Fugues en Liberté was a wonderful opportunity for
me to spend some time in a compleetely different cultural environment
in a beautiful part of the world. The music making did not disappoint
and I was generally impressed with the quality of the participants and
faculty. Many people come back year after year, and with the convivial
atmosphere and an opportunity to make new friendships with like-minded
people, I can see why !» |

«Pertuis
provides an opportunity for amateur musicians to meet in a relaxed atmosphere
and enjoy a high standard of music-making with excellent professional
teaching. Lunch at the lake – a point in the day where, for an hour or so, the music stops and conversations begin. If you come to Pertuis seeking the typical Provencal experience, you may be disappointed. But if your aim is to immerse yourself in an intensive week of music-making with like-minded amateurs, there is no better place » |
