The city of Caen has decided to stop funding William Christie’s Arts Florissants, orchestra in residence since 25 years. The City’s support reached 332.900 € in 2014. Politicians say, the measure is due to the city’s severe cost saving policy. Moreover, the Region of Basse-Normandie could decide the same and cut their funding of € 373,000.
