Led by a string quartet featuring violinists Cécile Carrière and Girolamo Bottiglieri, violist Frédéric Carrière and cellist David Poro, this lunchtime concert presents Beethoven’s String Quartet No.7 (Op.59 No.1) within an intimate series showcasing musicians from the Geneva Chamber Orchestra. The performance emphasizes clarity of texture and close ensemble dialogue, offering a relaxed, luminous listening experience where interplay and phrasing bring out the work’s dramatic contrasts and warm lyricism.
In early January 2022, two construction vehicles belonging to a Swiss multinational were set on fire at a gravel pit in the Geneva countryside. Over a year later, a young man — referred to as Jérémy — was arrested and suspected of involvement in the arson. Held in pre-trial detention, he was released after more than three months, following strong public support and mobilization.
