Selected Events & Festivals in France
Below is a selection of events and festivals taking place in Brittany, Normandy and Pays de Loire this year.
Etendard Brest - CSP Limoges, Basketball, Pro B
Pro B, saison 2009 - 2010
Friday, March 19 2010
Aiming for the skies.
The French Pro B league can be described as the antechamber to the elite of French basketball, a rite of passage that all players must make if they with to reach the top. This means that every year there is a rich programme of games to keep you entertained…
Only three teams will be able to reach the Pro A league by the end of the playoffs, so those involved will be fighting tooth and nail for every point… See such star athletes as Terence Stansbury or Moustapha Sonko, both prized as the best Pro B players in recent years.

Le Peuple de l'herbe, live concert
Tuesday, March 16 2010
The people have spoken…
Le Peuple de l'Herbe was founded in 1997, and their first "real" album (Triple Zero +) came out three years later. It was also in 2000 that the band worked on the soundtrack of the French film Baise-Moi, further establishing them as a choice act. In 2002 the "People of the Grass" were even awarded a Victoire de la Musique in the Découverte Scène category.
Their music is a cocktail of styles, from funk to hip-hop, ragga and drum'n'bass, and their 2005 album Cube, recorded at the Supadope factory, only adds more to their reputation as innovative, truly inspiring musicians. Their latest album, Tilt, came out in 2009…

Water Night, Nantes
La Nuit de l'eau 2010
Saturday, March 20 2010
Get ready to dive!
Organised as part of World Water Day, a UNESCO event, the French Swimming Federation will be organising La Nuit de l'Eau or "Water Night" on March 20th, 2010.
This is a charity-oriented operation dedicated to raising awareness: teaching future generations to respect water as a finite resource. This is achieved through a programme of activities and events, educational workshops, awareness workshops and more…
Profits are to be donated to children of the third world with regards to their access to clean, running water. Last year's event provided the funds to built and maintain 9 Togolese schools with access to running water (thanks to a drinkable water source and a rain-catching cistern) and helped promote awareness programmes in these schools (hygiene, health, water purification, etc.). The sponsor for this major event, Alain Bernard, is a professional swimmer with more than a few prizes under his belt…

Asian Film Festival, Deaville
From Wednesday, March 10 2010 to Sunday, March 14 2010
A showcase for talent in Asian cinema.
In Deauville, Spring comes with the blossoming of the Lotus flower, at least metaphorically speaking, as the month of March brings the annual Asian film festival.
The festival has become a kind of Oscars on the local film scene, making the city popular throughout Asia, and this eighth edition is looking more exciting than ever before. Not only is there the annual film competition, but also film screenings and retrospectives of some of the greatest stars in Asian cinema. The festival provides Asian and European film cultures with a networking hub, a major competition, and a festive event in the prestigious beach-town of Deauville.

Rose, live concert
Wednesday, March 17 2010
Rose rhymes…
Rose could very well be the illegitimate daughter of Janis Joplin and Bob Dylan… At least, in musical terms, this has been suggested more than once. Formerly a teacher, Rose dedicated herself to music and performance after her first real stage experience opening for Alain Souchon at the Olympia.
She has since managed to gain a substantial following, the pretty blue-eyed girl from Nice. With her modest beginnings as a teacher, it was a big step for her to go head-on into the music industry, but the risk she took selling her words and emotions paid off quite well. Rose sings about love and its two main byproducts, hope and disillusion. Her style is authentic, simple and heartfelt; her world is snarky, hilarious but somewhat mysterious at times - much like herself, really.

Raw body language.
Born after the second world war, contemporary dance is steeped in culture and tradition - it is a dramatic, theatrical way of conveying body language in its rawest form. Each reprensentation is, much like music or writing, a unique vision of the world.
Some of the world's top choreographers in contemporary fields include Maurice Béjart, Marie-Claude Pietragalla, Angelin Preljocaj, and Pina Bausch...

Antonio Placer, live concert
Les Instants du Monde 2009
Friday, March 19 2010
A musician, a baker, a philosopher.
Antonio Placer is a self-taught musician, an artist who grew up with the Spanish tradition of oral history that involves storytelling, song and music. His music today was built on these ancient traditions in which "the artist is no more than a servant dedicated the living world". Born in Galicia, Spain, he has been a resident of Grenoble for the past two decades. He delivers music that breathes life, a poetic, cross-cultural style that blends French and Spanish cultures and taste of both the Atlantic and Mediterranean waters…
Antonio Placer is more than a musician, he is a philosopher who chooses to express his views of humility and authenticity in song…

Seeing is believing…
The Voir, Savoir expo is in essence a study of the relationship between pedagogical content and graphic images… The core concept was to map out the usage of images throughout Western history, in particular their usage in educational contexts.
More than 300 documents will be on display and set up so that the visitor may admire them chronologically. From the first prints to our current image-saturated culture, learn the truth behind the expression "seeing is believing"…

-M- (Matthieu Chédid), live concert
Friday, April 2 2010
Musical M, genius from A to Z.
-M-, born Matthieu Chédid, is no Jimi Hendrix, but he's far from an amateur when it comes to music. This multi-instrumentalist shakes off any label; they just don't stick with him. His songs blend snarky social commentary with irony and touching love stories, and he boasts a number of Victoires de la Musique awards thanks to his creative genius and song writing.
After his hit album Je dis aime in 1999, and Qui de nous deux in 2005, -M- worked with French star musicians such as Vanessa Paradis and Brigitte Fontaine, effectively gaining even more respect in the professional music world.
In 2006, with his work on the soundtrack of hit French film Ne le dis a personne, he was awarded yet another Victoire de la Musique. After a musical comedy and a string of performances, -M- is back in 2009 with a new album: Mister Mystère.

Misia, concert - Lisboarium -
Saturday, March 20 2010
The new voice of Fado.
After the release of her album Garras Dos Sentidos in 1998, Misia was hailed the new voice of Fado.
Named after Misia Sert, she is a multi-faceted musician with more than one trick up her sleeve; she plays piano and even the accordion. The sum of these parts is a collection of nostalgic, poignant songs that breathe new life into Fado while remaining faithful to its essence. Her latest album Canto is inspired by the music of Carlos Paredes, Portugal's leading guitar composer.
Resolutely original and authentic, Canto includes contributions by poets Vasco Graça Mouras, Sergio Godinho and Pedro Tamen; their words are perfectly suited to Misia's hauntingly beautiful voice.

Get ready to dive!
Organised as part of World Water Day, a UNESCO event, the French Swimming Federation will be organising La Nuit de l'Eau or "Water Night" on March 20th, 2010.
This is a charity-oriented operation dedicated to raising awareness: teaching future generations to respect water as a finite resource. This is achieved through a programme of activities and events, educational workshops, awareness workshops and more…
Profits are to be donated to children of the third world with regards to their access to clean, running water. Last year's event provided the funds to built and maintain 9 Togolese schools with access to running water (thanks to a drinkable water source and a rain-catching cistern) and helped promote awareness programmes in these schools (hygiene, health, water purification, etc.). The sponsor for this major event, Alain Bernard, is a professional swimmer with more than a few prizes under his belt…

Worth her weight in gold!
French hip hop artist Diam's is among those rare women who manage to establish their music, their style and brand value, in a world of men.

Dee Dee Bridgewater, live concert
Monday, March 15 2010
The cutting edge of jazz…
Born in Memphis, Tennessee, Dee Dee Bridgewater started her career in the 70s in popular New York jazz dens. Her ongoing love affair with French culture and people started in 1973 when he offered her first ever performance on French soil - 11 years later she returned and became a resident.
America's favourite diva is today striving for authenticity and a return to the roots of jazz. Her album Red Earth, a Malian Journey is more than a superficial foray into African culture, it is an exploration of her own roots. This original project was a new direction in Dee Dee's career, an adventure in the no-man's land between jazz and African traditional song, two worlds aeons apart and yet aligned in so many ways...
Bridgewater's unique playing style, her history and personality, are part of the mythology that has made her such a living legend…

100 Gypsy Violins from Budapest, live concert
Sunday, March 28 2010
Majestic "Tzigane" performance…
They are a hundred-strong. They are a wave of violins, a veritable army of strings: violins but also double basses, cellos, clarinets… They are here to conquer and yet they come in peace, offering a moment of pure pleasure.
This show will be a unique musical experience, ranging from the elegance of Brahms' Hungarian Waltzes to the ardour, the sheer power of Khatchaturian's Sword Dance…
You will discover an orchestra unlike any other, an instrumental mastery born of generations of experience. It will be a classical performance, yet these musicians are far from the stone-faced stereotype, almost dancing with their instruments as they are carried away by the music.

Onwards to Ligue 1!
The Guigamp football team, En Avant Guingamp or EAG, really shocked the sports world when it overcame the mighty Rennes and snatched up the French Cup. Their Ligue 2 performance, however, was less impressive, leaving them in 13th position.
Training under Victor Zvunka, the Guingamp warriors will be battling tooth and nail to reclaim their former glory.
