Our first Galamian Summer Music Festival was held in 2003 in Aubeterre, France (near Bordeaux). It was a beautiful environment and the village welcomed us with open arms. The musicians performed nearly every evening in the village square and the two concerts given in the chapel of the Aubeterre Castle and in the garden of the castle were well attended and enthusiastically received.
