Don’t just like it, live it!
The Geneva Chamber Orchestra and Le Lyrique join forces for a chamber music marathon devoted to Bohemia, a landscape of longing, mystery, and radiant invention. Structured as six musical courses, the day gathers Raphaël Merlin, Romain Descharmes, Flore Merlin, Camille Merckx, Petr Nekoranec, Deborah Nemtanu, Florent Pujuila, the Terpsycordes Quartet, and GCO soloists. From Janáček to Dvořák and Martinů, the programme moves between intimacy, folk echoes, and exuberant lyricism.
Led by the Rosamonde Quartet — Agnès Sulem-Bialobroda and Hugo Meder (violins), Jean Sulem (viola) and Xavier Gagnepain (cello) — this programme journeys through Viennese chamber music from Haydn’s witty Op. 74 No. 3 to Webern’s expressionist Langsamer Satz and Schubert’s dramatic “Death and the Maiden”. The ensemble’s refined sonority and long-standing cohesion illuminate continuities and ruptures in style, while sensitive dynamics and meticulous phrasing reveal the music’s emotional breadth and intensity.
Novarina’s text is staged as a pulsating, jubilant language for seated singers: an archipelago of acts and unresolved gestures. Cascades of duos, liturgies of the circus, laments, spoken landscapes and fragmentary songs assemble into a corrosive poetic satire that probes the sonic, visual, semantic and rhythmic virtualities of speech. The piece interrogates political discourse, the press and the social image of man while privileging theatrical sound and corporeal invention. Produced by Studio d’Action Théâtrale as part of its 40th anniversary.

Set between domestication and escape, La zone nono follows a troupe of ragged yet endearing animals seeking community and freedom. Two table puppeteers and two musicians bring to life quirky creatures through live music and songs, blending humour and poetry. The staging balances intimacy and playful invention, exploring solidarity, resilience and the pull of the wild. The show is performed in French and mixes witty storytelling with musicality and inventive puppetry.

Blending investigation, memory and love letters, the staging probes guilt, betrayal and political history as two former members of the same terrorist group confront a shared past. The production balances documentary clarity and poetic fragments, offering a tense, intimate reflection on vengeance and the echoes of the 20th century into the present.
