After 9 wonderful years of developing projects for Les Percussions de Strasbourg, our dear artistic director Minh-Tâm Nguyen will be leaving his post in the summer of 2026, to pursue new adventures. We’re fortunate to be able to continue working alongside him for some time yet, but we’re already looking for his successor! The announcement is available below, and applications must be received by midnight on July 6.
CONCERT IN STRASBOURG
MINIMAL IN CRONENBOURG
As part of the Arachnima tour in Cronenbourg, Les Percussions de Strasbourg perform a free open-air concert. On the program: works by Steve Reich, Nik Bärtsch, Shelley Washington and Camille Pépin – with a creation commissioned especially for the ensemble. A plunge into the heart of rhythm, between repetitions, pulsations and resonances.
Concert at 8:00 pm, duration 50′
Free admission
Parc de la Bergerie, Cronenbourg (en plein air)

This year, the workshops took a special turn with a foray into pop and traditional repertoires with the two choirs invited to join the adventure. It’s an unprecedented configuration that shakes things up, demands more rigor from participants, and pushes everyone out of their comfort zone. Relive this semester of workshops with us and the 6th graders from Truffaut middle school in our “Percustra” podcast series. Maud de Carpentier and Making Waves slipped into our instrumentarium with their microphones. The result is a series of 3 podcast episodes, which you can listen to on your favorite listening platforms!
