The story

Festival International Les Solistes in Tunis

Festival International Les Solistes is an annual training and competition program in greater Tunis that pairs promising young Tunisian instrumentalists and singers with visiting international trainers. Spanning workshops through a public final over roughly two months, it partners with the Higher Institute of Music of Tunis, the municipality of Megrine, and the Arabesque Musical Institute of Medenine to prepare emerging soloists for professional stages.

Each year, the Les Solistes association turns a stretch of the Tunis region into an informal conservatoire without walls.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Unlike a single-city concert festival, Les Solistes operates as a regional network, running linked programming across Tunis, Megrine, and Medenine so young musicians outside the capital get access to the same coaching as conservatoire students in the city center

02

The mystery stays covered

Renowned Tunisian and foreign artists serve as trainers rather than headline performers, and the association keeps its soloists visible year-round through smaller public concerts before the main festival, so competitors arrive at the final already tested in front of live audiences rather than debuting cold on a single stage

Water and renewal

Living ritual

channeling it through mentorship rather than pure performance

The sacred route

Living ritual

and treating the soloist's public final as a rite of passage comparable to a conservatoire graduation recital
