Parfums: Scented Concert Experience

Booking Required

With Parfums, the concert becomes a total sensory experience led by François Cardey and the Ensemble Agamemnon. Renaissance and early Baroque repertoire is woven with an original olfactory layer: three fragrances spatialized by studio Magique, designed to unfold in dialogue with motets, madrigals and historical « arabi odori » reconstructed by Alexandre Helwani. Principal singers Amandine Trenc and Marc Mauillon join an ensemble of cornet, violin, viola da gamba, lirone, harp, harpsichord and organ, creating an intimate, immersive soundworld.

Conceived as a dialogue between historical research and live performance, this second edition of Les Encyclopédiennes explores bel canto and the first currents of Italian Romanticism. Musicians from L’Encyclopédie shape a refined programme that moves from lecture and vocal reflection to concert performance, with Bénédicte Tauran in the workshop and young talents from the HEM in the Ex-Libris concert. The atmosphere is intimate, lyrical, and intellectually charged.

Part of Recluses Fest #10, this evening brings a rare tribute to Parabellum alongside performances by Ring of Cash and Vikie. Former members of Parabellum reunite with guests and local scene stalwarts to revisit cult anthems with raw intensity and communal fervour. Ring of Cash blends power-folk-rock energy with Juliette Canouet’s captivating voice, supported by Mika Garcia, Jean-Philippe Soler and Xa Mesa. Vikie opens with a punk-tinged, politically charged chanson, creating an exhilarating, sweat-soaked atmosphere.

Quatuor Terpsycordes overturns chamber music conventions by forging a direct, living relationship with the audience. Combining boldness and sensitivity, the quartet moves fluidly through repertoire from pre-classical works to contemporary creations, searching constantly for balance between tradition and freedom. Their Haydn cycle on period instruments and a recent album have crystallized this rigorous, inspired approach. Violinists Girolamo Bottiglieri and Raya Raytcheva, violist Caroline Cohen-Adad and cellist Florestan Darbellay shape luminous textures and intense chamber dialogue, inviting deep listening and vibrant emotional exchange.

28 October – 8 November

Directed by Eléonore Bonah and staged by scenographer Maria Clara Castioni, CHRÜSIMÜSI transforms Adelheid Duvanel’s terse, poetic fragments into a multilingual theatrical tapestry. Performers Eléonore Bonah and Maria Clara Castioni inhabit hypersensitive, marginal characters whose everyday gestures oscillate between absurdity and tenderness. Sparse staging and a careful interplay of voice and silence highlight Duvanel’s Kafkaesque intimacy, while language shifts (French, German, Italian) create a fragile, dreamlike atmosphere that balances humour and quiet despair, celebrating stubborn acts of resistance.

29 October – 31 December

A lively ensemble navigates topical scenes that mix wit and social critique, supported by inventive choreography, musical arrangements and fluid staging. The production alternates fast-paced comedy and reflective moments, offering a polished, communal portrait of contemporary Geneva life told through song, movement and comic timing.
