Conservatoires and music schools: a stable network to supplement your income as a performing artist

In France, the network of regional (CRR), départemental (CRD) and municipal (CRC) conservatoires, supplemented by numerous accredited associative music schools, represents a steady source of regular engagements for professionally qualified musicians. These institutions do far more than teach: they organise masterclasses with guest artists, creative residencies, educational concerts, examination juries and sometimes host ensembles in residence.

This pack brings together 568 conservatoires and associative music schools across France, with contact details for directors, educational coordinators and artistic directors. Emails have been verified by DNS/MX lookup from public sources (data.gouv.fr, Ministry of Culture directories) and updated in 2026.

These institutions operate on the academic calendar and institutional tender cycles, creating a predictable framework — ideal for planning your activity months in advance.

Who is this pack for?

This pack is designed for musicians who combine an artistic practice with teaching expertise:

  • Classically trained instrumentalists (DNSPM, DNSEP, master's degree) wishing to offer masterclasses in their speciality
  • Jazz and improvised-music musicians looking for guest sessions in jazz classes
  • Composers wishing to propose creative residencies in collaboration with students
  • Music educators seeking long-term supply work or occasional positions
  • Chamber ensembles offering turnkey educational concerts for students

If you are an active music teacher, this pack allows you to extend your network to institutions outside your usual département, or to offer occasional masterclasses to complement your main activity.

Concrete advantages of this segment

  • Well-paid masterclasses: between €500 and €1,500 per day depending on level and institution
  • Creative residencies: 1–2 weeks, often including accommodation and an artistic budget
  • Long-term stability: conservatoires that book a satisfying artist regularly re-invite them — sometimes offering a contractual position
  • Examination juries: paid, and a strong addition to your artistic CV and professional network
  • Educational concerts: short formats (45 min–1h) in front of a student audience with mediation, well suited to chamber ensembles

Prospecting advice: how to approach conservatoires

Seasonality

The academic year structures everything: conservatoires define their masterclasses and residencies between June and September for the following year. Send your proposals before the September term starts for first-semester engagements, and before January for the second semester. Some institutions work with annual budget envelopes allocated by local authorities — spending often needs to be committed before the end of the financial year (December).

How to write

Your email must mention your qualification, your instrumental speciality and your teaching experience. Propose a concrete format: masterclass duration, target level (beginner, intermediate, advanced), theme covered. Attach your biography and, if possible, a link to a recording of a previous session. Educational directors value artists who already have mediation experience.

What to propose

The most in-demand formats: a full-day intensive masterclass (morning: group class, afternoon: individual lessons), a commented educational concert (ideal for younger students), and a creative residency (1 week with a public presentation at the end). Use our contact methodology to optimise your response rate.

Associative music schools

Associative music schools (MJCs, accredited non-profit associations) have more modest budgets but are more flexible in their decision-making processes. A simple phone conversation with the director can be enough to secure an engagement. They are an excellent entry point for building an initial teaching network. You can also use our outreach service to prepare your prospecting campaign.

Frequently asked questions

Is a teaching qualification mandatory to offer a masterclass? +

Not necessarily. Conservatoires invite recognised artists in their field for one-off masterclasses, even without a formal teaching qualification. What matters is your artistic track record (concerts, recordings, prizes) and your ability to share knowledge. However, for regular teaching positions (fixed-term or permanent contracts in the public sector), the Diplôme d'État (DE) or Certificat d'Aptitude (CA) are required.

How are masterclass fees set? +

Rates vary depending on the type of institution and the artist's profile. In public CRR and CRD conservatoires, one-off engagements are often paid on the basis of an hourly rate set by the local authority or a negotiated artistic fee. Associative schools have more flexibility. Budget for between €500 and €1,500 per day, plus potential reimbursement of travel expenses.

Do the 568 contacts cover all of France? +

Yes. The file includes institutions in every metropolitan region, with a natural concentration in major cities (Paris, Lyon, Bordeaux, Nantes, Toulouse, Strasbourg) and their surrounding areas. Less densely populated regions are also represented through CRDs and mid-sized associative schools.

Can I propose educational concerts as well as masterclasses? +

Absolutely. Educational concerts (45 min–1h, with commentary, in front of a student audience) are very popular, especially for introductory classes and beginners. They allow the institution to offer a cultural event without committing to a full day. This is often a great way to get your foot in the door before proposing a longer masterclass.

Is this pack suitable if I am based abroad for part of the year? +

Yes, and it can even be an asset. An international profile enhances your appeal to conservatoires. Specify your availability and the periods when you are in France in your email — some institutions appreciate planning sessions concentrated over a few consecutive days to make the most of your travel.
