History and missions
The Music Academy of Villecroze arose from Anne Gruner Schlumberger’s imagination and generosity. As a music enthusiast, she wished to develop patronage to encourage young artists’ musical practice and creation. When she discovered the village of Villecroze (in Provence), she realized this was the ideal place for her project.
The Association
The Music Academy of Villecroze is a non-profit association (French Law of 1901), which functions thanks to three generations of family patronage.
