The Villèle concerts

Since 2006, the Cercle des Muséophiles de Villèle has been organising "Les musicales" at the Chapelle Pointue, with four to six concerts a year featuring all types of music: classical, jazz, gospel, maloya, sega, and music from all continents.

Recital Benoit Mussard | Guitar

With the participation of CRR students

Sunday 7 April 3pm - chapelle Pointue

Originally from Réunion Island, Benoit Mussard explores the many facets of the guitar across a wide range of styles. Classical music, the colours of Brazil and the rhythms and flavours of Reunion all come together.

His first album, Tropikal, subtly reflects these diverse influences. The sounds of wind, rain, storm and birds vibrate under the strings of the ukulele, guitar and kora.

A graduate of the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Paris in classical guitar, and of the Sorbonne University in musicology, the guitarist pursues his path between teaching, shows for young audiences, improvisation and composition.

Winner of several international competitions, Benoit is currently doing a master's degree in composition at the Haute École de Musique in Geneva.
