Celebrating French-American Philanthropy: 25 Years of Friends of Fondation de France
In 2000, Friends of Fondation de France was launched in New York to strengthen the philanthropic bond between France and the United States—building on 250
Fondation Gautier Capuçon aims to support the musical vocation of exceptional young artists in France and abroad during their studies and to help them in the first steps of their career.
In a world where budding musicians face countless challenges, the Fondation Gautier Capuçon emerged as a beacon of hope. Launched amidst the COVID-19 turmoil by renowned cellist Gautier Capuçon, this initiative offers not just scholarships, but a platform for young talents to shine. From granting study opportunities to orchestrating concerts with established maestros, the foundation’s inaugural year is replete with tales of passion, perseverance, and promise.
The foundation focuses on 18-25-year-old musicians who have graduated from a national higher conservatory (or an equivalent abroad) or obtained a conservatory prize, but also young musicians who have a project to pursue their studies.
With Friends of Fondation de France, US donors will support a scholarship program for young deserving musicians and awards to help them at the beginning of their professional life for concert and recording opportunities.
