FURTHER AFIELD
A summer series of open-air concerts in local parks offering festive, family-friendly world-music programmes on some nights and intimate jazz sessions on others. The programme pairs vibrant ensembles and solo artists to explore cross-cultural rhythms, melodic improvisation and textured arrangements. Curated to alternate lively communal sets with quieter, introspective performances, the series invites attentive listening in green urban settings and celebrates shared musical encounters across diverse traditions.
Two unexpected deities arrive by bicycle, guided by a capricious GPS, carrying a very serious object: the Wheel of Fortune. They need the audience—especially children—to spin the wheel and together invent a story about a child to whom nothing seems to go right. Misfortunes pile up, luck sticks to the sneakers and solutions must be imagined. A participatory musical tale where chance and imagination shape a different story each time.
In French. Kids ages 5 and up.
Cocanha is a vocal and percussion duo rooted in Occitan traditional music, performed by Lila Fraysse and Caroline Dufau with sound by Sanz Grosclaude. Two voices and stringed tambourines weave hypnotic polyphonies while foot rhythms and struck textures animate archival songs. The performance blurs archive and living tradition: melodies shift, words reappear transformed, and the intimate pulse invites physical response, carrying ancient tunes into contemporary space.
Directed by Valeria Bertolotto, Faire Hamlet! stages a company wrestling with performance and truth as rehearsals of Shakespeare’s prince unravel private tensions. Pierre Banderet, Dylan Poletti and an intergenerational ensemble confront doubt, jealousy and shifting identities while Angèle Colas provides artistic collaboration. Sound by Fred Jarabo, scenography by Fanny Courvoisier, lights by Alessandra Domingues and costumes by Eléonore Cassaigneau shape an intimate, unstable world where fiction bleeds into life.

Festival International de Carillon presents a weekly showcase of the carillon’s rich sonic palette, performed by local and international carillonneurs. The programme ranges from historic transcriptions to contemporary compositions, exploring timbre, rhythm and resonance across the city skyline. Intimate and expansive by turns, the concerts emphasise nuanced bell technique and spatial listening, inviting attentive moments of reflection and communal listening under open skies.
Returning for its twentieth edition, Les Aubes brings softness and poetry to Geneva mornings. At dawn, intimate musical encounters offer delicate soundscapes that stir the senses, favouring close listening and subtle atmospheres. The programme highlights a variety of acoustic and experimental projects, from solo performances to chamber ensembles, each designed to awaken the city with refined timbres and attentive pacing. A gentle celebration of morning listening and communal presence.
