Pr\u00e9sentation des musiciennes :<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>

Pascale Meley<\/strong> obtained a First Prize in violin at the Paris Conservatory (Conservatoire national sup\u00e9rieur de musique et de danse de Paris) in the class of G\u00e9rard Jarry and completed postgraduate studies in chamber music in the class of Jean Mouill\u00e8re, while also attending the solo violin class of Pierre Doukan. She joined the Orchestre de Paris in 1989.
In 1984 she founded the Verlaine Quartet, which won First Prize at the Luxembourg International Competition and recorded an album devoted to Webern and Shostakovich. First violin of the Paris String Quartet, with which she performs regularly, she also recorded in Japan the\u00a0Quatuor en fa majeur<\/em>\u00a0de Maurice Ravel, le\u00a0Quatuor n\u00b02<\/em>\u00a0by Schumann as well as pieces by Puccini, Wolf and Webern.
Pascale Meley also taught violin at the National School of Music in Cergy-Pontoise (1992-93) and at the Conservatory of Asni\u00e8res-sur-Seine (1996-2003). She has held the Certificate of Aptitude for the Functions of Violin Teacher since March 1996.<\/p>

Jeanne-Marie Ponty-Fourel<\/strong> obtained a first prize in piano at the Paris Conservatory (CNSM) in the class of Aldo Ciccolini. Her passion for chamber music quickly led her to perform in flute and piano sonatas, sonatas with violinist Pascale Meley, and violin, cello, and piano trios. She accompanied singer Jean Guidoni on his two-piano concert tour with her aunt, Dominique Ponty. For many years, she has been a tenured professor at the Montreuil Regional Conservatory (CRD) (93), accompanying the conservatory's choirs while continuing her chamber music career.<\/p>

Allocution d’ouverture :<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>

C’est \u00e9videmment extr\u00eamement \u00e9mouvant, troublant pour moi, d’ouvrir cet \u00e9v\u00e8nement, cet hommage, d\u00e9j\u00e0 lanc\u00e9 par le vernissage d’il y a quelques heures.<\/span><\/p>

Hommage \u00e0 Bernard <\/span>Ponty<\/span>, fils de Jeanne <\/span>Lab\u00e9gorre<\/span>. Jeanne d\u2019<\/span>Aramits<\/span>, Madame de <\/span>Bar\u00e9tous<\/span>, la s\u0153ur de mon <\/span>grand p\u00e8re<\/span> paternel.<\/span><\/p>

Si Bernard <\/span>Ponty<\/span> \u00e9tait comme un fr\u00e8re pour mon p\u00e8re, il \u00e9tait un adulte de plus, fascinant et exceptionnel, dans la \u00ab\u00a0galaxie\u00a0\u00bb d’adultes exceptionnels qui <\/span>ont constitu\u00e9<\/span> mon univers d’enfant.<\/span><\/p>

J’ai toujours eu conscience de la chance qui \u00e9tait la mienne d’\u00eatre, de naitre dans cet univers singulier que mes <\/span>grands parents<\/span>, mes grands oncles et tantes avaient su cr\u00e9er.<\/span><\/p>

Un univers peupl\u00e9 de gentillesse, de protection, de travail, de bons vins, de grandes tabl\u00e9es. De confiance.<\/span><\/p>

Le<\/span>s hommes marchaient sur la lune\u00a0!<\/span><\/p>

Ce n’est pas une blague, ni une m\u00e9taphore… <\/span>C\u2019est pour d\u00e9peindre l\u2019audace et l\u2019ambition enthousiastes de l\u2019\u00e9poque. Que l\u2019on sent si bien sur le petit tableau qui a servi de visuel \u00e0 l\u2019invitati<\/span>on au concert\u00a0:<\/span> La promenade avec Bernard, plage sauvage, Hossegor, 1965.<\/span><\/p>

L<\/span>es hommes sur la lune, ce fut 4 ans <\/span>apr\u00e8s.<\/span> J’en avais<\/span> 6 <\/span>quand cela advint.<\/span><\/p>

Bernard et Serge \u00e9taient all\u00e9s ch<\/span>ez <\/span>un ami<\/span> qui avait la t\u00e9l\u00e9vision,<\/span> \u00e0 Hossegor,<\/span>pour voir l’\u00e9v\u00e8nement.<\/span> Ils sont rentr\u00e9s tr\u00e8s tard \u00e0 la villa de Capbreton<\/span> o\u00f9 nous \u00e9tions avec ma s\u0153ur et ma m\u00e8re<\/span>. C’\u00e9tait un soir, une nuit de juillet magnifique, un ciel empli d’\u00e9toiles, une for\u00eat \u00e9clair\u00e9e tant par les rayons de la lune que par les vers luisants.<\/span><\/p>

Je les ai entendus raconter \u00e0 ma m\u00e8re par le d\u00e9tail, compl\u00e8tement exalt\u00e9s, l’approche, l’alunissage, la sortie du premier homme…<\/span><\/p>

C’est un exemple, de la chance que j’ai eu de conna\u00eetre ces deux \u00eatres et ces \u00e9t\u00e9s, ces moments formidables v\u00e9cus avec votre p\u00e8re, Laurence, Claire, dans sa presque premi\u00e8re vie.<\/span><\/p>

Ainsi il \u00e9tait \u00e9vident, depuis le d\u00e9but de mon aventure ici, avec l’ouverture du Fonds <\/span>Lab\u00e9gorre<\/span>, que Bernard devait \u00eatre accueilli.<\/span><\/p>

Je savais depuis quelques ann\u00e9es qu’il ne serait pas l\u00e0… je n’imaginais pas que mon p\u00e8re, non plus, ne serait pas l\u00e0.<\/span><\/p>

Pourtant leur pr\u00e9sence est ressentie, visible. Gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 vous tous, gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 leur sensibilit\u00e9. Que l’un comme l’autre ont \u00e9prouv\u00e9, en peinture, et en \u00e9criture.<\/span><\/p>

L<\/span>a vie, nos chemins personnels d’adultes nous \u00e9loignent, naturellement.<\/span><\/p>

Mais pour l’enfant que j’\u00e9tais, et qui me<\/span> tient debout, rien n’a disparu.<\/span><\/p>

J<\/span>e suis heureuse que Laurence et Claire<\/span>, les filles de Bernard<\/span> aient pu poursuivre <\/span>un peu<\/span> la gentillesse et l’<\/span>affection qui a uni nos p\u00e8res.<\/span><\/p>

Je suis heureuse \u00e9galement que Pascale et Jeanne-Marie, mes autres cousines, soient \u00e0 nos c\u00f4t\u00e9s pour perp\u00e9tuer, non seulement l’estime partag\u00e9e de la g\u00e9n\u00e9ration d’avant, au moins pour <\/span>quelques uns<\/span>, mais aussi celle de nos jeunes vies, quand nous parcourions sans rel\u00e2che les chemins de vignes de Fronsac, \u00e0 pieds, \u00e0 v\u00e9lo, en <\/span>cariole<\/span> bricol\u00e9e<\/span> non homologu\u00e9e<\/span>…<\/span><\/p>

Je suis heureuse que Jacques soit l\u00e0, mon cavalier de tous les mariages des grands, que Xavier soit l\u00e0, le petit dernier des cousins. Qui n’est plus du tout petit. Mon <\/span>coeur<\/span> se sert bien s\u00fbr de ceux que nous pleurons, Bruno, Dominique, Marie-H\u00e9l\u00e8ne, Rose Marie, Maurice…<\/span><\/p>

Il \u00e9tait <\/span>au dessus<\/span> des forces de ma m\u00e8re <\/span>et de ma famille <\/span><\/a>d’\u00eatre parmi nous aujourd’hui. Je vous remercie par avance de votre compr\u00e9hension.<\/span><\/p>

Il est des arrachements insupportables. L’envie de vivre peut alors quitter nos <\/span>coeurs<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

Que la musique, autre passion de mon p\u00e8re et de Bernard, de ces deux fr\u00e8res d’\u00e9motions, de culture, vienne<\/span>nt apaiser et regonfler les n\u00f4tres, de <\/span>coeurs<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

Merci d’accueillir, comme il se doit, Pascale et Jeanne-Marie, mes cousines. Solistes magnifiques et passionn\u00e9es. Pour que nos \u00e9motions,<\/span> et<\/span> celles de Bach, Debussy, des Schuman, rejoignent l’esprit de Bernard, de Serge, o\u00f9 qu’ils soient \u00e0 pr\u00e9sent, ensemble.<\/span><\/p>

Bernard Ponty was Serge\u2019s first cousin. A writer, painter, and philosopher, he passed away in 2020. The bond between Serge and Bernard was so clear, so evident, so timeless from their youth onward, that it is a joy to finally open the walls of the Fonds\u2019 great hall to this brother in spirit. Companion in every challenge, every project, every journey\u2014especially those summer holidays that brought the whole family to Capbreton, Hossegor, or Seignosse in the 1960s and 70s.<\/p><\/div>

\u00ab Elans \u00bb,\u00a0<\/b>Jacques Lasserre<\/b><\/span><\/h3>

Paintings and sculptures<\/p>

From February 6 to March 6, 2026<\/i><\/strong><\/div>
Opening Friday, February 6, 5:30 p.m.<\/em><\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>

It is a pleasure to welcome for the first time Jacques Lasserre, a native sculptor from the Landes, deeply rooted in his homeland, often exhibited and celebrated there, and recognized far beyond for the quality and the almost musical rhythm of his forms. A journey through his work, from the Roman Legionnaire of the Dax Fountain, to fiery nudes, and on to solemn totems and sober yet powerful animals.<\/p><\/div>

\u201cThe Strength of Tenderness\u201d\nLydie Bansard, sculptor, guest of the Fonds Lab\u00e9gorre, alongside the works of Serge<\/b><\/span><\/h3>

Paintings and sculptures
From December 11 to January 15, 2025.<\/strong><\/p>

Opening on Thursday, December 11 at 5:30 p.m.<\/p>

\"Life is a tender thing, and easily disturbed,\u2019 writes Montaigne in his Essays. It is the strength of this tenderness\u2014both unsettling and unsettled\u2014that is expressed in the bronzes of Lydie Bansard, patiently shaped, dented, cracked, mottled, and patinated. To allow oneself to be looked at by her sculptures is to dare tenderness; to explore her Carte du Tendre. A true \u201cfountain of youth\u201d in the depths of time, infinitely moving and invigorating.\"<\/p>
