New Deal’s International visitors programme is organised in partnership with the Centre National de la Musique and the Institut français.

The CNM is an organization designed to accompany and support the various stakeholders in the music sector, from artists and songwriters to labels, music publishers, concert promoters, venues, managers, sound engineers and retailers.

The Institut français is the public establishment, under the supervision of the Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Culture, responsible for French cultural policy abroad.

Its activities cover all areas of the arts, intellectual exchanges, cultural and social innovation, and linguistic cooperation.

FEVIS – the French federation of independant vocal and instrumental ensembles – was founded in 1999 and today brings together 220 musical ensembles, giving more than 5,000 performances a year in the field of heritage and new music, from the medieval repertoire to contemporary works.

REMA is the network for Early Music in Europe. With over 210 members (ensembles, festivals, concert halls, research institutes, conservatoires, labels or agents), it is the meeting for all professionals of Europe and the world to work together on today’s challenges and perspectives.
