International Center of Music Château de La Moutte

Project budget

The Château de la Moutte will be made available to the School of Music by the Conservatoire du Littoral, convinced that this high-quality project will bring life back to the Domaine in keeping with its history and preservation.

The investment program

The funding required to kick off the School project covers three main areas :

   � The renovation of buildings (main building and outbuildings) and landscaping to restore the park to its original beauty, under the responsibility of the chief architect for Historical Monuments. 0,8 M.euros

   � The outfitting of part of the building (la Toscane) as study rooms and concert halls in accordance with teaching needs. Estimated at 1,8 M.euros

   � The purchase of equipment and fixtures needed for pupils (particularly pianos, including concert grands).  Estimated at 0,7 M.euros

Operating costs

Operating costs (permanent staff of around ten, VIP expenses, maintenance and repairs etc.) are estimated at 0,6 M.euros per school year.
The annual teaching budget is around 0,8 M. euros, which includes the salaries of permanent staff plus the fees of guest teachers.
Accommodation costs for 50 students are estimated at 0,5 M.euros for 8 months at the school.

The funding plan counts on European and French subsidies to cover operating costs and part of the teaching budget.
Private sponsors will be sought to provide study grants to fund shortfalls in the teaching and student accommodation budgets.
Musical activities such as concerts outside the School framework could bring in additional revenue.
