Information on the entrance examinations

As a result of the exceptional strike action taken by some of the CNSMD's teachers and accompanying staff, some entrance examinations will be held unaccompanied, out of a concern for fairness between candidates.

The entrance examinations concerned are as follows:

Women's Classical Ballet - first and second rounds
Men's Classical Ballet - first and second rounds
Contemporary Dance - first round
Viola 1^st cycle - first round
Bassoon 1^st cycle - first round

Saxophone 1^st and 2^nd cycle - first and second rounds
Tuba 1^st and 2^nd cycle - first and second rounds
Violin 1^st cycle - first round
Cello 1^st cycle - first round
The second round of the singing competition has been postponed to a date yet to be fixed.

The situation will be re-examined on 19 February with a view to the forthcoming exams.
 

The Conservatoire would like to reiterate the essential importance of the role of accompanists in music and dance. This difficult decision is nevertheless necessary in this context.

The Conservatoire remains attentive to the concerns expressed in this movement, which are the subject of regular exchanges with the parties concerned. It is fully aware of the issues involved in the accompanying professions. The Ministry of Culture, which is in charge of the current negotiations, is conducting an active dialogue with the representative trade unions. The Conservatoire is in contact with the Ministry and is closely monitoring future developments.
