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!

Vive l'expérience
The joy you bring to teachers and students through your francophone music selections is appreciated even beyond the classroom! When French teachers are traveling in Senegal and Tunisia with Vive, we often play Manie Musicale songs mixed in with local music for some fun bus trips! We are proud to be a multi-platinum sponsor for 2026. Merci!
