- Description of the association

GMEM - Centre national de création musicale was founded in 1972 by a group of composers. It was awarded the Centre National de Création Musicale label in 1997. Its missions are defined in a set of specifications issued by the French Ministry of Culture, and are based on the production of musical creation, dissemination, transmission and research.

Christian Sebille, its Director and founder of Césaré, appointed in 2011, has breathed life into a new artistic project open to all the aesthetics of contemporary musical creation, and is developing a transmission center. In 2017, the GMEM joined the SCIC Friche de la Belle de Mai, at the Module, built to meet the specific needs of its artistic project.

Throughout the year, the GMEM regularly hosts transdisciplinary artistic residencies, produces shows in the field of musical creation, conducts numerous educational, teaching, training and research initiatives, and shares all these activities through regular public presentations.

The annual program is punctuated by the GMEM Season:
- Modulations - a monthly event at the Friche la Belle de Mai, every 3rd Tuesday of the month, and 1 Sunday per quarter at the Opéra de Marseille, a time for convivial sharing around a performance;
- the Propagations Festival in May, dedicated to the multiplicity of forms of sound and musical creation (sound installations, concerts, off-site performances, sound art, musical ballads...); - Delegated productions on tour, in France and Europe.);
- Delegated touring productions in France and Europe;
Residency outings, transmission concerts and other events organized in collaboration with the GMEM's many cultural partners complete the GMEM's dissemination activities.
