    Eric

  • "Thank you so much for the workshop. It was really very beneficial to me and I very much appreciated the whole package. I have no negative feedback and no suggestions, nothing? it was just perfect. I would like to thank you all for your kindness and your availability. I will probably see you next year and perhaps for 2 separate workshops (April & Summer). See you."

    Alexandre

  • "Again a very god thank you for this week. We got spanked hard but with a huge pleasure, (it's new to me). We rehearsed tuesday evening and we applied what we learned with you. I am trying to put all my electronically memorized moments on the web site. I know that for you all the improvisation are part of your daily life as it it your work but I tell myself that artists are a little different, maybe you get to mix it all?. In any events a huge hello from Switzerland. I hope to see you all soon in Sommieres for a new workshop. Best wishes to you all."

    Christian

  • "I am happy to see that I wasn't the only one that lived an intense week."

    Philippe

  • "It has been 5 mn since I am searching for the right words to describe what I experienced but nothing comes out other than the feeling of pleasure, to have shared times, some words and some notes, with each one of you and to have the satisfaction to have made a leap forward in my quest to play music. Thank you Alain, Corrine, Laurent, Pierre and Richard, but the road is still a long one before my Sax will know nirvana."

    Bruno

  • "Hello to you all. I do not know how to convey my joy, happiness that I spent with all of you and all those unforgettable moments filled with music, friendship, sharing and silliness. I do not know how to express the tears I cried when I left this beautiful, wonderful place where we all stayed. Vive La France!"

    Philippe

  • "It is true that already the rehearsals, petanque, laughing out loud and each ones smiles are missing in my life. It was a memorable week."

    Joël

  • "My head is still full of wonderful musical memories and I have a crazy desire to learn much more. Parisians, I will see you soon and awaiting to get news. May the Music be with you and ciao."
