Jeunes Talents (Young Talents)
The Jeunes Talents association, founded in 1998 and recognised as a charity, organises concerts and educational activities to help talented young musicians and singers at the early stages of their careers to become professionals, and to make classical music accessible to all.
All year round, nearly 160 concerts offer the opportunity to discover the great musicians of tomorrow, in exceptional venues such as the Archives Nationales, the Petit Palais, the Cercle Suédois, etc., at reasonable ticket prices.
Ever since it started, Jeunes Talents has been working to stop vulnerable and isolated people, especially those in hospitals, from being socially excluded. To this end, the association organises free concerts in various hospitals and retirement homes. The musicians bring a breath of fresh air and lightness to days that are often filled with heavy medical procedures. These musical moments bring together hospital patients, their families, healthcare staff and external audiences.

“Since July 2010, following Jacques Demarny (†)’s proposal, the Comité du cœur has been supporting the concerts organised by Jeunes talents in several AP-HP hospitals. Since the loss of a major corporate sponsorship, your loyal support has made it possible for us to continue hosting several concerts for the benefit of the children at Robert Debré Hospital!”
