Jazz musicians in the departments and corridors of the CHU Carémeau

Aubade cet été dans les couloirs de l’hôpital du Grau-du-Roi.

Une initiative de l’aumônerie catholique qui, depuis 2008, offre cet avant-goût des fêtes de Noël. Rendez-vous jeudi 19 décembre dès 10 heures.

As a foretaste of the Christmas holidays….Here we go again for a new serenade in the corridors of the CHU Carémeau, at the initiative of the Catholic chaplaincy: Thursday, December 19, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., musicians from the Hot Antic Jazz Band, including Bernard Anthérieu and Michel Bastide, will take their instruments and scores, accompanied on the maracas by Sister Flore Kaboré, from the various departments to the reception hall, passing through the rooms of patients who wish to, the administrative offices, the cafeteria…

“They play for patients, families, caregivers”

“They play for sick people but also for caregivers, emphasizes Father Frédéric Auriol, who launched this event in 2008. Christmas is a celebration of joy. A religious joy, an inner joy… And what better way to convey it than through music, in a world of suffering and anxiety.  “
After this highlight, the Nîmes chaplain will continue with the essential Christmas masses: on Saturday, December 21 at 3 p.m. in Serre-Cavalier, with the help of diocesan hospitality, and on Tuesday, December 24 at 5:15 p.m. at the Pavillon des aumôneries in Carémeau, not forgetting the appointments in nursing homes. ”These masses are open to patients, caregivers, to families… We need to feel united because we are all living the same situation. These masses bring together all the fragilities.”

Please note that on December 25, Father Auriol's team will remain available to patients, particularly for communion.
