The house of all musics and dance inMetz, the CitéMusicale-Metz is the fruit of the
history of the City of Metz and of the Région Grand Est, traditionally a stronghold
of music. A pioneering venture in France on this model, the Cité Musicale-Metz
brings together the three performing arts venues in Metz (the Arsenal, BAM and
Les Trinitaires) and the Orchestre National de Lorraine in an ambitious project at
the service of artistic creation and innovation, at the intersection of all musical
aesthetics and disciplines, in favour of the public and music lovers.
The CitéMusicale-Metz is a nerve centre for artists, and first of all for the Orchestre
National de Lorraine and the musicians who go to make it up. With halls that are
outstanding for both their acoustic properties and their history, it has the potential
for welcoming and presenting the leading performers, composers and authors of
our time in order to cultivate the curiosity and fervour of the public.
The Cité Musicale-Metz is an artistic and economic force, a city project that offers
the possibility of diffusing musical events throughout the Région Grand Est, the
Greater Region, in France, everywhere in Europe and beyond. It is also a social
project with the ambition of making available to the greatest number a public
service of culture characterised by excellence and based on musical diversity.
TheCitéMusicale-Metzdevelops a social andeducational project that allows young
people, families, all generations and those furthest removed from performing arts
venues to discover the pleasures of music through outreach activities, mediations
and convivial family encounters.
Finally, the Cité Musicale-Metz is a team of musicians and performing arts
professionals at your service who ceaselessly strive, with the deepest respect for
artistic creation, to create social links and discoveries with you, to share with you
their passion and the best of music and dance.
