The Tzigane Violin Ensemble of Cannes was created in 1989 by Jean-Jacques CALVI, a professor at the Cannes Departmental Conservatory (C.R.D), with the approval of Philippe BENDER, who was then the Director of this institution and permanent conductor of the P.A.C.A Orchestra. Among other things, it allows young musicians to practice a different kind of music, one of oral
tradition, spontaneous creation, and improvisation.
Throughout their travels, the Tziganes have borrowed music from the countries they’ve crossed. The violinists, prodigious virtuosos, interpret these themes with the wild soul of freedom. Horas, sirbas, csardas, the singing of birds, as well as the great classics, are true invitations to celebration. Thanks to the Tzigane Violin Association, this Ensemble has confirmed its talent twice in Budapest at the Kulturalis Talentum Forum: one of the last places where this oral tradition music is perpetuated; then in New Delhi, with the Artists from Rajasthan, where the Tziganes originate, and recently in Madrid, Canada, and Washington.
