The National Sheepfold of Rambouillet 

The Sheep of Rambouillet listening

Every year at the Rambouillet National Sheepfold, it's the Shearing and Wool Festival. A rural and friendly event, which brings together the inhabitants of Rambouillet to observe the 1000 Merinos sheep! 

For the very first time, the SOL project was invited to come and play with them. During this event, 3 musicians came to exchange with the sheep of the sheepfold under the intrigued gaze of the families present for the occasion. Andreas AKIKI on cello, Sophie BANONGO on Zither and Louis-Marie AKIKI on piano.

After 2 musical days, the reactions and moments shared with the animals of the sheepfold did not fail to be noticed and especially to appease the listening public: "A moment in suspense" as described by parents and Frédéric DRIEUX - Director and Head of activities at La Bergerie.
