Atlantiques : Traversées des mondes lusophones

Throughout the 2026-2027 season, the Conservatoire Nadia et Lili Boulanger opens its doors to the cultures and artistic expressions of the Portuguese-speaking world.

Titled Atlantiques : Traversées des mondes lusophones, this multidisciplinary artistic and educational project will bring together students, teachers and guest artists around a common ambition: to explore the links uniting the Portuguese language and the creative forms that have blossomed across different shores of the Atlantic.

Through concerts, masterclasses, dance, theater and interdisciplinary creations, the conservatory’s departments will present works inspired by the cultures of Portugal, Brazil and Portuguese-speaking African countries. Throughout the year, students, invited artists and cultural partners will bring to life this crossing between continents, cultures and disciplines.

Over the course of the year, several highlights will enrich the project: concerts, lectures, partnerships with French and Portuguese cultural institutions, as well as a creation around Chico Buarque's Ópera do Malandro bringing together several departments of the conservatory.

From the universe of Fernando Pessoa to the popular rhythms of Brazil, via Portuguese musical and choreographic traditions, Atlantiques is an invitation to discover the richness and diversity of a cultural space shaped by voyages, encounters and cross-fertilizations.

A season to experience together, at the Conservatoire and beyond its walls.
