This magical place embodies a casual elegance popular with families looking for a quiet sanctuary far from the hustle and bustle of the city. Many artists, such as Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and Andy Warhol, as well as great writers, like James Fenimore Cooper, Herman Melville, and F.\u00a0 Scott Fitzgerald, immersed themselves in this idyllic atmosphere. Royan, a city of art and history, is a French mirror of the Hamptons on the other side of the Atlantic! The same spirit of conviviality and creativity thrives here. It is also a place that has hosted many distinguished guests, such as Sacha Guitry, Yvonne Printemps, Marie Marquet, and Jacques-Henri Lartigue. Even Pablo Picasso set up his studio here to paint his \u201cStill Life with Sheep\u2019s Skull\u201d and famed \u201cCaf\u00e9 des Bains\u201d, a coffee bar he could see from the window of his villa.

Twenty-five years later, Un Violon sur le Sable draws nearly 80 classical musicians, most from the Op\u00e9ra National de Paris under the direction of J\u00e9r\u00f4me Pillement. The orchestra plays excerpts from classical and lyric works, great opera arias, film scores, and original music. Each year, a surprise light-music artist is invited to share a few notes with the orchestra.

  UN VIOLON SUR LE SABLE - LIMITED 25th ANNIVERSARY EDITION

This limited edition of twenty-five numbered watches pays tribute to music: Curved violin sound holes are cut out of the dial’s center, revealing the automatic movement of this exceptional  watch. Classima is firmly rooted in tradition with refined Roman numerals, and reflects an inner, unostentatious richness.

This talented artist was the violinist for whom the event was named, present at the very first event 25 years ago on the Royan beach. He remains devoted to the festival still, and never misses the summer spectacle of Un Violon sur le Sable.
  
  A CONCERT WITH ONE’S FEET IN THE SAND
  
  Un Violon sur le Sable invites both seasoned and amateur music lovers to sit on the sand facing the ocean to enjoy the greatest works ever heard in such an exquisite setting. The atmosphere is truly enchanting. Royan is a petite seaside paradise that has been a getaway for families since the nineteenth century, a city represented by charming, blue-and-white-striped tents that today reflect a singular vacation lifestyle.
  
  THE HAMPTONS AND ROYAN: THE LANDS OF ARTISTS
  
  The Hamptons, Baume & Mercier’s land of inspiration, has been a getaway for the entire world, a place to refresh body and soul, since the 1920s. This magical place embodies a casual elegance popular with families looking for a quiet sanctuary far from the hustle and bustle of the city. Many artists, such as Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and Andy Warhol, as well as great writers, like James Fenimore Cooper, Herman Melville, and F.  Scott Fitzgerald, immersed themselves in this idyllic atmosphere. Royan, a city of art and history, is a French mirror of the Hamptons on the other side of the Atlantic! The same spirit of conviviality and creativity thrives here. It is also a place that has hosted many distinguished guests, such as Sacha Guitry, Yvonne Printemps, Marie Marquet, and Jacques-Henri Lartigue. Even Pablo Picasso set up his studio here to paint his “Still Life with Sheep’s Skull” and famed “Café des Bains”, a coffee bar he could see from the window of his villa. The Côte de Beauté cultivates this artistic connection, the charm of the beautiful family homes where loved ones gather, the serenely beautiful beaches, and the ceaseless music of the ocean.
  
  LIFE IS ABOUT MOMENTS
  
  Spectators find seats along the beach as soon as the site opens to the public, towels form a giant colorful patchwork, families and friends greet one another, wreathed in smiles. Children play, picnics are brought out, people read, chat, and have fun.  The beach becomes alive. Backstage curtains ripple, notes reverberate under the sun, excitement builds; on the sand, people of all ages are in attendance, loved ones, families, and friends. The seaside becomes a grand reunion site. The stage is at last revealed, all eyes turn to the orchestra, a hush falls over the crowd, and emotion sweeps through the 50,000 people who have come to experience an unforgettable spectacle of sight and sound.
  
  A HISTORY, A LEGACY
  
  The Baume & Mercier story reads like a true saga, one dating back to 1830. From generation to generation, through siblings and friends, through sophisticated complications and visionary innovations, the family dream continues to bring great things to life and Baume & Mercier still embodies an ideal that has been expressed in the Maison d’Horlogerie’s watchword: “Accept only perfection, only manufacture watches of the highest quality.”
  
  It was with this same daring that Philippe Tranchet, creator and director of the festival, suggested to one of his violinist friends that the latter don a tuxedo and play a few classical music pieces on the beach of Grande Conche in Royan. Twenty-five years later, Un Violon sur le Sable draws nearly 80 classical musicians, most from the Opéra National de Paris under the direction of Jérôme Pillement. The orchestra plays excerpts from classical and lyric works, great opera arias, film scores, and original music. Each year, a surprise light-music artist is invited to share a few notes with the orchestra. Celebrated performers like Maurane, Laurent Voulzy, Olivia Ruiz, and Christophe Maé have graced the stage of Un Violon sur le Sable to share a song or two.
  
  THE CITY’S VIOLON SUR LA VILLE
  
  This year’s festival will shake the sands and the city on July 21 - 28 with a series of concerts given in unusual venues by the orchestra’s soloists and musicians. The festival will open on the roof of the prestigious Notre Dame Church of Royan. Spectators can watch the event broadcast live from the beach and the downtown venues,  rebroadcast  later  on the Baume & Mercier  Facebook page, www.facebook.com/BaumeEtMercier. There will be other events for picnicking and gathering, including a recital on the “pop-up” beach from the Cordouan lighthouse sandbar, a piano concerto on the cliffs of Talmont sur Gironde, and a Chacun Son Court (“To Each His Own Court”), when Jean-François Zygel  and Andy Emler improvise on center court at the Royan Garden Tennis, celebrating the ocean-facing club’s hundred-year anniversary.
