A summer exhibition and a museum night drive the Campanaire-Espace Museum Pierre Lasserre

“Claude Augie, a man of many talents”

The Night of the Museums was held on Saturday, by the Friends of the Museum, and the Society of Friends of Claude Augie, led by Mr. Aris. The evening had just begun, upon entering the Musée Campanaire- Espace Pierre Lasserre, a few piano pieces from Claude Augie’s notebooks (on Claude Augie’s piano), translated by pianist-musician Lise Lenhard, also a music teacher at L’Isle-Jourdain. This musical moment was refreshing, pleasant and light, and the selected melodies resonated in this extraordinary setting… “I have a dream, I’d like to give a concert about Frederic Mumbo in the museum,” says Liz Leinhard.
