Support the Institute

Standing with a century-old institution

Recognized as serving the public interest (reconnaissance d'utilité publique, 1983), the association lives through those who choose to carry its mission forward. The Circle, patronage, scholarships, heritage, projects: there are several ways to support the Institut Rachmaninoff.

Why support us

To support the Institute is to join a chain of transmission begun in 1924 — a cultural, educational and humanitarian mission with public-interest status.

Rachmaninoff Circle

A circle of friends, patrons and ambassadors

The Rachmaninoff Circle (Cercle Rachmaninoff) brings together those who choose to stand by the Institute over the long term. Private commitment, privileged access to moments of cultural life and support for landmark projects: the Cercle is one of the pillars of the institution's development.

Patronage
