Mission & Vision

Fondation du Cercle de l’Orchestre de Paris is a donor-advised fund at Fondation de France. Its mission is to promote, support and finance the development of Orchestre de Paris as well as live performances and music in all its forms.

Actions Led

The foundation plays a key role in expanding the reach of Orchestre de Paris, supporting both its concerts in France and international performances. Beyond the stage, it champions initiatives designed to bring live music to those who might not otherwise experience it, such as hospitalized individuals. Additionally, it fosters programs that introduce young audiences to symphonic music, from interactive concerts and musical storytelling to instrumental workshops and educational rehearsals for schoolchildren and aspiring musicians.

Projects that US Donors Can Support

Friends of Fondation de France donors can contribute to initiatives that broaden access to live music, including:

  • Concerts in France and abroad, ensuring the continued excellence and visibility of Orchestre de Paris.
  • Programs for underserved audiences, such as bringing live performances to hospitals and care facilities.
  • Youth-focused initiatives, including family-friendly symphony concerts, school programs, and training opportunities for the next generation of musicians through the Academy of Orchestre de Paris.
