After a first day session in the spring of 2009, the Cdmc, the City of Paris and 'Cultures aux jardins' offer a new event on the theme of the coming together of musical creation and the vegetable kingdom. Following the principle of the commissioning body/artiste pairing, several creations in preparation, currently underway or already realised will be related by two voices.

On the occasion of the Musica festival, the instigators and partners of this project - the French Ministry of Culture, the Sacem, the Cdmc and Ircam, will be presenting the Gateway to Contemporary Music. In operation since 2006, the Gateway now groups the resources of some thirty French organisations dealing with musical creation after 1945, including nearly 180,000 references.
