Born in 2013 from collaboration between the municipalities of Mably, Riorges and Roanne, it testifies to the Department’s lasting commitment to amateur musical practices in its territory.
Coordination was until then ensured by the City of Riorges. In order to strengthen this system and ensure greater visibility and structuring of actions, coordination of the program has, since Thursday, December 12, been transferred to the Conservatoire du Roannais. An agreement was officially signed for a renewable period of three years by Yves Nicolin, president of Roannais Agglomération and the director of the Conservatory, Pascale Amiot.
Continue in the “Starter” spirit
When Riorges noted, through Jean-Luc Chervin, mayor, that he had had difficulty finding new musicians (apart from the success of the Mardi du Grand Marais), Françoise Ploton, deputy for culture of Mably, was pleased to the progression of the music school which brings “only happiness”, the transfer to the Conservatory will allow us to continue in the “starter” spirit to look for young people attracted by music, to join the Grand Bureau (network of current music in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes and key player in the development of the system), to listen to the desires of everyone in order to help, among others, those who want to propel themselves into a creative project. It is also an opening towards the territory of which the 40 municipalities of the Roanne metropolitan area are part.
The emergence of several supported groups in 2024 – Les Cocksuckers, Invisible Fires, Arkœur d’Eden and Tom Salinas – should be noted. Successes which will undoubtedly lead to others thanks to Ziconord.
