This year’s theme is Fêtons la musique! Through performances, presentations, and activities, students will explore the wide variety of French musical genres across time and place. *
What better way to celebrate the 75th Annual French Convention than to sing and dance our way across the ages through France and beyond?! Long before there was ever a disque d’or or Victoires de la Musique, French musicians have entertained kings, created master orchestral works, and delighted the hearts of young and old on the pavés de Paris. What’s your preference? Baroque, opéra, romantique, bourrée, musette, cabaret, cancan, chanson française, yéyé, jazz, pop, rock, métal, électronique, danse, disco, hip-hop, … ? There’s truly something for every palate. With that said, recommençons du début !
*Note: The individual oral, t-shirt, video, and visual art competitions are REQUIRED to be theme-related.
