It is with great pleasure that we welcome the Trio Haydée for the launch concert of their new CD ‘Ciels d’or’. Marielou Jacquard (voice), Anastasie Lefebvre de Rieux (flutes) and Constance Luzzati (harp) founded the Trio Haydée in 2023, building up a repertoire carefully chosen for this atypical group, focusing their first disc on previously unpublished works by female composers of the past as well as more recent creations by Lili Boulanger, Pauline Viardot, Grace Williams, Rosy Wertheim, Elisenda Fabregas, Edith Lejet, Edith Canat de Chizy and Josephine Stephenson.
‘Ciels d’or” invites listeners on a journey from dusk to dawn. The skies ignite at dusk, marking the transformative moment as captured by poets and composers alike: vibrant twilight, the dream-filled night, swirling nightmares, glimmering stars, the radiant sun, dawn, or ethereal light. Aube, commissioned from author-illustrator Diglee and composer Josephine Stephenson, is at the centre of this journey.
Les Harpes Camac are partners of the 1%HARP association.
Every ticket sold at our events at Espace Camac contributes in its entirety to raising funds to create a genuine network of solidarity between harpists around the world.

Adults: €5 / Under 18s: €2 / Under 12s: free

We are delighted to announce our co-sponsorship of The International Jeunesses Musicales Competition 2025, in Belgrade (Serbia). This will be a truly exceptional event because until the present time, the competition has rotated the featured instrument (for example, the competition of 2024 featured the clarinet). However, in 2025, the competition will spotlight the harp for the very first time.
One of the largest competitions of its type in the world, the International Jeunesses Musicales Competition Belgrade (IJMC Belgrade) exists with the aim to support the most talented young musicians at the beginning of their artistic careers.
The competition will take place 21-30 March 2025 (the deadline for applications is 25 January 2025) and is open to advanced harpists aged 15-35.
There is a preselection (made by video submission), after which selected applicants will then proceed to the live rounds, the third and final of which will be with orchestra.
Camac will contribute to the cash prizes offered by the competition, as well as a concert opportunity. Contestants will also be able to play on a selection of our harps, if they so choose.
In order to find full information on the proposed repertoire and how to apply, please visit the competition website.

The seventh edition of the International Harp Competition in Szeged, Hungary, will take place between November 19 – November 23 , 2025. There are three competition categories: 14 and under, 19 and under and 25 and under, and the competition always celebrates a Hungarian composer and a major harp repertoire composer. For the seventh edition, the event will celebrate two significant anniversaries: the 150th anniversary of the births of Henriette Renié and Maurice Ravel (both born in 1875), and the 50th anniversary of the passing of Marcel Grandjany (who died in 1975).
Their compositions have been included as set pieces in the program, alongside works by two Hungarian composers, reflecting the competition’s ongoing mission to support and promote Hungarian music.
Comprehensive information about rules, prizes, programmes and deadlines are available here on the competition’s webpage. You’ll also find the entry form, including upload details for the video preliminary round. The closing date for applications is September 15, 2025.
