At the Boundaries of the Possible – The Art of the Violin According to Locatelli.
The Temenos Ensemble and violinist Chouchane Siranossian invite you to a concert at the Temple de St-Gervais, showcasing the work of Pietro Locatelli. The program features Concertos from his Opus 1 and 3, highlighting Locatelli’s evolution from his early works to his mature pieces, characterized by striking virtuosity and deep expressiveness. The evening also includes a Trio that offers a more intimate soundscape and a flute concerto by Galuppi. This performance reveals Locatelli as both a poetic figure and a master of grand Baroque effects, guiding audiences from public grandeur to private introspection.
Under the glow of a streetlamp, two students await an interview with Grisélidis Réal, set as part of their final studies.

Les Inoubliables festival in Geneva shines a spotlight on women composers past and present, from classical to jazz, through an eclectic programme of concerts, screenings, masterclasses, cine-concerts, round tables, and workshops for all audiences. It also carries out long-term initiatives such as residencies, score publications, and outreach activities, helping preserve and promote this rich female musical heritage.
Les Gros patinet bien is a wildly inventive comedy featuring just two performers and 150 cardboard boxes. The show follows a plump, Shakespearean-style storyteller who narrates a chaotic European escape tale while remaining seated, and his hyperactive, silent sidekick who acts out the entire journey around him. With roller skates, scooters, planes, and even a mule, the duo creates a hilarious, high-energy performance full of physical comedy, absurdity, and imagination. This clever mix of stillness and motion earned the show the 2022 Molière Prize for Best Public Theatre.
