Metamorphoses offers a chamber reimagining of two repertoire monuments through intimate transcriptions. Richard Strauss’s Métamorphosen in a seven‑instrument version unfolds a poignant, wartime elegy, while Ferdinand Ries’s chamber transcription of Beethoven’s Third Symphony reveals the work’s dramatic architecture and visionary drive. Led by violinist Pierre Fouchenneret, cellist Raphaël Merlin, violist Elise Vaschalde and pianist Simon Zaoui, with soloists from the Orchestre de Chambre de Genève, the programme traces a cross‑century dialogue of loss and revelation.
