Manie Musicale Collaborative

Manie Musicale Collaborative is a 501(c)3 nonprofit that works to promote the French language and culture through music.  Each year, thousands of students worldwide participate in this event, modeled after the NCAA March Madness basketball tournament.  Students fill out brackets and vote to decide which of 16 songs from the French-speaking world will win the competition.  Your charitable donation helps us to cover expenses, provide prizes, and host special events. Thank you for supporting us … merci beaucoup!

I am retiring this year, after 33 years - I am NOT musical- taking the leap to doing MM has been the best decision! Merci! (And I mean- blindly leapt / jumped in- both feet- so happy to filter the massive amounts of material created by all the wonderful and sharing educators. My students’ lives will forever be enhanced from this experience. Whoohoo! I wish I was braver sooner. This is year two for me.)

"I'm so sad that next year in college there won't be a Manie Musicale ". This quote from a student says it all! Thank you to all who have made this possible and brought such joy to our classrooms. The camaraderie among the Facebook group has been inspiring!

I can't even begin to measure the positive effects of Manie Musicale on my and my students' mood because we have songs to hum and sing along to. Besides that, the month-long, consistent opportunities to practice sharing thoughts and opinions about music in multiple contexts are priceless. Oh, and let's not forget that everything is adaptable to multiple levels. Amazing
