Description *: You'll take this oenological and musical tour, glass in hand, to four locations in Meursault where winegrowers will welcome you for a tasting.

- At Clos Saint-Jacques, at the home of Mr and Mrs Duveau. The MMC Trio, featuring Samuel Apoutou, piano, Hugo Lustremant, drums, and Michel Martin-Charrière, double bass, will welcome you with a traditional jazz repertoire. As a counterpoint, Domaine Berthelemot wines will be available for tasting.

- At the home of Mr and Mrs Wambergue. You can listen to excerpts from "Toy Toy", a quirky, fun concert for young and old on the theme of animals and birds, while discovering the wines of Domaine Pierre Morey.
Michael Copley has toured the world several times with The Cambridge Buskers (later The Classic Buskers). Today he divides his time between Cambridge and Cluny. At Toy Toy he plays some twenty wind instruments - flutes, recorders, ethnic instruments, ocarinas, toy instruments and a few surprise instruments - with his characteristic virtuosity, speed and British humour.
Marcia Hadjimarkos, a multi-keyboardist who is well respected in the world of ancient and modern keyboard instruments, accompanies him on several instruments: two toy pianos, a harmonium, a piano and a melodica.
Their programme, which includes classical hits as well as traditional music and lesser-known selections, presents a bouquet of pieces from the Middle Ages to the present day.

- At the Manoir des Parcellaires in Saulx. You can listen to harpist Claire Moncharmont, who will take you from Bach to Debussy, while tasting the estate's wines.

Claire Moncharmont is a freelance harpist who has performed in orchestras, as a chamber musician and as a soloist in Sweden, France, Denmark and Norway. She performs regularly with the Swedish National Orchestra, the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra and the Swedish Chamber Orchestra, among others. She recently toured with the Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique on period instruments, conducted by Sir John Eliot Gardiner, at the BBC Proms in London, the Musikfest in Berlin, the Salzburg Festspiele, the Opera Royal in Versailles and the Berlioz Festival at the Côte Saint-André.

Keen to develop the repertoire for her instrument, she is passionate about creating contemporary works for solo harp and chamber music with harp. Claire is a member of the Nordic ensemble Hehku, with whom she participates in the creation of works written for the ensemble, and performs at numerous festivals such as the Turku Music Festival (Finland), the Vaekst Music Festival (Denmark) and the Gothenburg Harp Festival (Sweden). Claire is also a member of the trumpet and harp duo with trumpeter Geraldo Barbosa, with whom she performs regularly in concert.

In 2012, Claire obtained her diploma in Harp and Chamber Music from the Conservatoire de Versailles in the class of Françoise de Maubus and in the same year her Bachelor's degree in Music and Musicology from the University of Paris-Sorbonne. In 2017 she obtained her Bachelor's degree in Harp and Chamber Music from the Conservatoire Supérieur du Pays Basque Musikene in San Sebastian, in the class of Christine Icart. In 2019 she obtained her Master's degree in Harp at the Oslo Academy of Music with Isabelle Perrin. In 2021 she also obtained her master's degree in orchestra with Erik Goenestein-Hendricks at the Academy of Music and Theatre at Gothenburg University. She studied early music and basso continuo with Bérengère Sardin, Nanja Breedijk and Knut Johannessen.

Claire gives concerts with a rich and varied repertoire. Very eclectic, she enjoys exploring all repertoires, from early music to contemporary works, to help audiences discover the limitless possibilities of her instrument.

- In the grounds of the Domaine Jacques Prieur. Pianists Julien Blanc and Yves Henry, who also founded the Festival, will take turns sharing the keyboard, and will join forces for a few 4-handed scores, from Schubert to Brahms, while you enjoy a tasting of wines from the Maison Marthe Henry.
