The land of excellent cuisine, style, and culture, France is one of the top destinations for our touring ensembles due to its rich history, contrasting landscapes, and incredible performance venues. France’s glorious gardens, picturesque villages, thousands of museums, delicious wine, and majestic chateaux make it the perfect backdrop for your ensemble’s overseas adventure. In this week’s Encore Live event, our very own Tour Manager, Cecilia Galera, highlights the amazing sights, sounds, and scenery that make France such a popular destination. In this wide-ranging presentation, Cecilia discusses art, architecture, food, culture and so much more. Come for an examination of France’s most strange and delicious culinary traditions; stay for a discussion about the link between political power and artistic creation.
