Stéphane Bern welcomed at the Academy to the sound of the hunting horn

​

The FRTM was asked to provide musical accompaniment to the solemn opening session of the Académie de Versailles et d'Île-de-France, whose speaker this year was Stéphane Bern. 
At this event, Stéphane Bern had a conversation with Claire Bommelaere about heritage, in the superb setting of the former royal hospital’s chapel, designed by J-F. Darnaudin. 
This conversation was punctuated by horn calls, fanfares and songs performed by a quintet of horn champions, led by Nicolas Dromer. 
Dromer specially composed a “Master fanfare for hunting horns dedicated to Mr Stéphane Bern, historian”, La Stéphane Bern, a framed copy of which was handed to the speaker at the end of the session.
