Yulianna Avdeeva offers a programme of solo piano works by Johann Sebastian Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven and Maurice Ravel, combining crystalline counterpoint, Classical intensity and impressionistic colour. Her refined touch and meticulous phrasing reveal inner voices and dramatic arcs, while a keen sense of structure shapes each movement. The recital balances intellectual clarity with emotional resonance, allowing familiar repertoire to sound freshly illuminated and deeply expressive.
Mariés au premier ringard is a sharp, character-driven theatrical comedy that dissects the absurdities of modern relationships with warmth and irony. The staging favors close ensemble interaction, a lean scenography and precise lighting that underline shifting loyalties and comic misunderstandings. Moments of tenderness puncture the satire, inviting reflection on intimacy, identity and the small rituals of coupling. It balances humour and poignancy to produce a lively theatrical pulse.

Samir Kennedy and Sean Murray present “It’s got legs!!!!!!” at Maison Saint-Gervais. Their performance delves into economic, social, and intimate precarity by engaging with femininity, masculinity, liminal identities, and queer existentialism. Embracing a DIY aesthetic, recycled objects, and theatrical machinery, they craft a raw microcosm for a bold, subversive revue that explores the dizzying complexity of existence.

Directed as an in situ promenade, this performance follows two protagonists, P. and B., through the city’s hidden seams. B. conspires to seed an exuberant vegetal uprising, mastering invasive plants to unsettle urban order. P. slips into the city’s blind spots, picking locks and slipping through barriers to reveal alternative ways of inhabiting public space. The show mixes physical theatre, poetic staging and ecological imagination to explore rewilding, intimacy and civic subversion.

The OSR and soloist Antoine Tamestit will perform Jörg Widmann’s Viola Concerto, a challenging piece that showcases the musician’s diverse skills. The program also features Wagner’s “The Ring Without Words,” an orchestral arrangement by Lorin Maazel that condenses fourteen hours of music into one hour. The event is conducted by Daniel Harding.
Sara Oswald blends cello and voice into an intimate, mountain‑inflected sound world. The Vaud-born cellist presents selections from her 2022 solo album Bivouac, where bowed textures, plaintive melodies and sparse electronics conjure high-altitude atmospheres. Her work with Les Young Gods, Sophie Hunger and Pascal Oberson feeds an experimental yet lyrical approach. On stage she alternates fragile lyricism and raw resonance, shaping concentrated moments of reflection that linger in the listener’s memory.
Choreographers and performers Katerina Andreou and Mélissa Guex devise SHOUT TWICE as a physical, hybrid concert-performance where the body and voice become material. The piece transforms raw cries into collective energy, mixing movement, vocal textures and improvised dynamics. Intense and immediate, the work invites shared ritual, opening space for excess, play and communal release. The staging is nomadic and non-verbal, driven by bodily resonance and embodied sound.
