A musical start to the new school year at Marinela school in Ciboure
As part of the celebrations marking the 150th Maurice Ravel’s birthday, the Ravel Festival is offering a special musical and artistic program for fourth and fifth-grade students at Marinela Elementary School in Ciboure during the 2024-2025 school year.
