Le concours "Chansons sans frontières" propose d’écrire un texte de chanson en français sur le thème "Un monde inattendu".
La date limite d’inscription pour cette 16ème édition est le 30 janvier 2022.
Réveillez votre talent, faites chanter vos idées, vos émotions, vos mots. Une participation simple et gratuite.
Écrivez un texte de chanson en français sur le thème : Un monde inattendu
Un monde inattendu, c’est l’imprévisible, l’inespéré, la surprise, l’émerveillement ou la peur ; ce sont des rêves baroques, des voyages de science-fiction, une multitude d’éléments, de sensations, un petit grain de folie, peut être un monde nouveau… Dans tous les cas, un monde différent.
Le texte gagnant sera mis en musique par un artiste invité par Chansons sans Frontières.
Attention : le concours n’est pas ouvert aux personnes résidant en France métropolitaine.

Retour en images sur l'arrivée de Valérie Baraban à Houston comme consule générale de France.
Quatre mois intenses de rencontres chaleureuses avec la communauté française, les autorités locales, la communauté d’affaires franco-américaine, les écoles, les associations, le corps consulaire, les acteurs culturels… - à Houston, Dallas et Austin, avant de prochains déplacements dans d’autres villes de la circonscription.
Une période riche en événements culturels avec notamment le lancement de la Villa Albertine au Texas, le vernissage des expositions Calder-Picasso au musée des beaux-arts de Houston et Niki de Saint-Phalle à la Collection Menil. Riche également en échanges avec les universités de Rice à Houston et du Texas à Austin, ainsi qu’en célébrations comme le défilé du 11 novembre et diverses remises de décorations à des vétérans et des survivants de l’Holocauste. La diplomatie économique a été un axe fort, dans le secteur spatial ainsi que dans les secteurs de l’énergie, de la santé et de l’intelligence artificielle.
Rendez-vous en 2022 pour de nouvelles aventures au service de la communauté française et de l’attractivité de la France. Joyeuses fêtes et à très bientôt !
