Le Monastier-sur-Gazeille is known by musicians as this is the place of the "Festival du Monastier" (aka "Festival de Cuivres"), a great meeting centered around "brass". 40 concerts - in 7 days (!!) - in a town with a population of below 2000. Volunteers and a supporting community of music lovers make this festival possible. There are a lot of classes for amateur musicians during this week, not only for "modern" instruments, as well for old wind instruments. The teachers gave a baroque concert in the old church "Saint-Jean-Baptiste".
