Humanitarian
A mission of welcome and solidarity from the very beginning
Since 1924, the Institut Rachmaninoff has carried forward a mission of welcome, solidarity and transmission for students, artists and teachers whose paths have been interrupted by exile. This mission is not an addition to its work: it belongs to its history.
Founding mission
A historic pillar of the Institute
The humanitarian mission is one of the Institute's fundamental pillars. It contributes to its public-interest mission and carries forward a tradition of welcome begun at the very origin, when the institution became a place of continuity for artists, students and teachers in exile.
Welcome and integration
Enabling a path to continue
The Institute enables young students newly arrived in France to join demanding artistic classes, and offers recently welcomed teachers a setting in which to resume their work. A caring place of continuity, where teaching remains possible — for students and for those who guide them alike.
Talents
Supporting promising young artists in their training
Access
Enabling artistic studies to continue despite hardship
Criteria
Talent, motivation and discipline as a common foundation
Solidarity patronage
Supporting welcome and scholarships
Solidarity patronage supports the scholarships, welcome and guidance of the students and teachers who join the Institute. Individual patrons and companies thus contribute to a chain of cultural solidarity that carries forward a century of commitment.
Support a scholarshipTo welcome is not simply to open a door: it is to enable an artistic path to continue.
Supporting welcome
Sustaining what is passed on
Supporting a scholarship or booking an appointment with the Institute's team is a concrete way to help sustain this mission for the students and teachers it welcomes.
