In order to continue to support artistic creation, the Fondation des Treilles sponsors a composition residency award dedicated to the production of a musical work for concert, stage or audiovisual purposes, for which the candidate has already signed a contract of commission with a public or private musical institution .
The prize consists of a three-month stay at the Domaine des Treilles (Var) with a monthly allowance of €2,650, paid according to the length of the stay.
