American soprano Corinne Winters joins pianist Simon Lepper for an intimate recital that moves between impressionist poetry and Slavic lyricism. Winters’s luminous timbre brings Debussy’s Cinq Poèmes de Charles Baudelaire to life, while Glière, Tchaikovsky (Op. 60), Janáček’s Moravian folk settings and Kaprálová’s songs reveal contrasting colors and narratives. Lepper’s sensitive accompaniment underlines nuanced phrasing and chamber-like immediacy. The programme balances introspection and dramatic sweep, inviting a close, emotional listening experience.

Performed by Françoise Courvoisier (voice), pianist and composer Moncef Genoud, and saxophonist Valentin Conus, this project sets Henri Michaux’s poems against a sensual jazz soundscape.

The piece explores memory, fragility and shifting ground through fragmented text and elastic musical lines, creating an intimate, dreamlike atmosphere where language and music open doors to the imagination.

Written by Penda Diouf and staged by Evelyne Castellino, LA GRANDE OURSE is an ecofeminist fable that traces a mother’s descent after a minor incident becomes criminalized. Combining video, choreographed movement and choral voices, the piece weaves police violence, racism and sexism into a hallucinatory, dystopian world where omnipresent surveillance watches every gesture. As the heroine reconnects with ancestral nature by transforming into a bear, the production evokes animal survival instinct, collective gossip and the fragile line between humanity and wildness, offering a visceral, poetic reflection on power and resistance.
