Quatuor Drémise is a young string quartet dedicated to the exploration of both classical and modern chamber music repertoire. Through a sensitive and expressive approach, the ensemble brings together technical precision, rich musical dialogue, and a strong commitment to the emotional depth of the works they perform.
Created collectively by the company À l’Ouest with Guillaume Pidancet, this inventive staging reimagines Charles Perrault’s Bluebeard for families. Performed in a mobile truck‑theatre that becomes a ‘suitcase of dreams,’ the production blends playful storytelling, poetic imagery and close‑up interaction to transform a dark tale into a gentle exploration of curiosity and trust. The intimate ensemble features Pierre Boulben, Hugo Braillard and Loubna Raigneau.

The second edition foregrounds quicksilver wit, ensemble listening and bold character work as teams respond to spontaneous prompts.

Gli Angeli Genève will perform Gluck’s “Orfeo ed Euridice” in concert format at the Haydn-Mozart Festival. Under the baton of Stephan MacLeod and featuring Sophie Junker, Marie Perbost, and Iestyn Davies, this opera signals a departure from traditional opera seria with its mythological narrative and emphasis on the chorus and ballet. The concert-style performances, devoid of sets and costumes, heighten the dramatic intensity, promising unforgettable evenings.
An intimate theatrical evening that blends humour and reflection, Sacrée soirée stages a compact ensemble exploring rites of celebration, memory and the rituals that bind us. The direction favours precise physicality and luminous design, where shadow and music sculpt the actors’ interactions. Minimalist sets and evocative lighting shape fleeting tableaux, inviting a close encounter with the characters’ private revelations and shared contradictions.

What if bagpipes, binious, and bombardes were the perfect instruments to perform Philip Glass’s music? This bold and fascinating show takes that daring leap.
With 8 SONNEURS for Philip Glass, the iconic repertoire of the pioneering American minimalist composer gains a fresh dimension: four emblematic pieces from 1969 (Two Pages, Music in Fifths, Music in Contrary Motion, Music in Similar Motion) are reimagined by traditional Breton musicians.
The result? A striking sonic alchemy where rich timbres, the continuous drone of the bagpipes, and spatial sound transform the listening experience. Glass’s music becomes living, vibrant, almost hypnotic — proving that his spirit resonates just as powerfully through the drone of traditional instruments as through synthesizers.
