Music in Perigord
Music Festivals in Périgord
The Périgord, land of music
World-famous festivals have their charm. Here in the Périgord, we have something else: a multitude of concerts, of musical encounters, in small villages and sometimes in hamlets of a few hundred inhabitants. It is a different state of mind. People come for the music. And there are great musicians in these small, intimate concerts.
This is why we offer you, in a spirit of ecumenism, all the concerts or music or opera festivals of which we are aware, especially those closest to the historical area of the Music Festival in PérigordThe area around the Dordogne and Vézère valleys, but extending to the nearby Lot.
