À PROPOS
Established in 1997 to celebrate the bicentenary of this Walloon composer, the Félix Godefroid International Competition brings together talented harpists from around the world every three years.
Traditionally honoured by the presence of a prestigious jury, the support of regional, municipal and provincial authorities, and Camac harps, the competition gives pride of place to the works of Félix Godefroid, the true Paganini of the harp.
The competition is organised by the non-profit organisation Les amis de la harpe mosane
The organising team wishes you all the best with your preparations!
