HAPPINESS OF SOUNDS” AT THE RENÉ DUBOS REGIONAL HOSPITAL CENTER IN PONTOISE

Place of care, the hospital is also a place of life, open to the outside, where culture occupies a full place, the Festival of Auvers-sur-Oise is well aware of this and has decided to carry out actions awareness campaign at the Center Régional Hospitalier René Dubos in Pontoise in order to bring its residents some comfort insofar as the sick cannot go to an outdoor concert hall.

Bringing in classical music consists in bringing for a few minutes a moment of shared happiness, making people forget, for the time of listening, the physical and moral suffering endured.

The performances are provided by young musicians in a musical stroll from service to service – Neurology, Cardiology, Gastroenterology, Dialysis, Urology/Gynecology – the Festival introduces or rediscovers to patients, composers ranging from Bach to Beethoven via Liszt or Ravel or Stravinsky.
