Eva Risser – Ensemble Ensemble

Booking Required

Initiated by Eve Risser, Ensemble Ensemble brings together five musicians whose roots in Romania, Norway, Alsace and the Dordogne fold folk fragments into an organic sound. Mari Kvien Brunvoll (vocals, electronics), George Dumitriu (violin, viola), Kim Myhr (guitar), Toma Gouband (drums) and Eve Risser (piano, flute, vocals) weave elemental textures where improvisation meets delicate composition. The music unfolds like a map of shared memory, intimate and exploratory, shifting between lyricism and raw rhythmic pulse.

15 September – 11 October

A darkly comic solo play about obsession and domestic chaos. When Michel finds a rare record he has long sought, he prepares a perfect hour to listen — but family, neighbours and a drip that will wreck the disc steadily intrude. The piece skewers selfishness with sharp humour and precise staging, combining intimate realism and heightened farce to probe human smallness and the desperate desire for solitude.

In French.

Retsina Cola channels the raw intimacy of rebetiko, a Greek urban music born from Asia Minor exile. The young quartet, composed of Alexios Koutsourelis (bouzouki and vocals), Giorgos Goudousakis (guitar and vocals), Melina Vasiliki Paraskevopoulou (percussion and vocals) and Ioannis Christakopoulos (accordion and vocals), blends plaintive melodies, driving rhythms and close vocal interplay. Their repertoire navigates longing, thwarted love and social struggle, stirred by oriental spices and smoky textures that evoke tavern nights and collective memory.

Sunday 20 September, 17:00

Composed by Louis Crelier with a libretto by Valérie Letellier, Requiem ad Pacem is presented as a newly created oratorio led by conductor Antoine Marguier. The Orchestre des Nations joins Chœur Lyrica-Opéra and Chœur Pro-Arte de Lausanne, with Michel Voïta as récitant, to shape a ritual soundscape that balances solemn choral writing and intimate solo passages. The work meditates on mourning and the search for reconciliation, enveloping audiences in dense harmonies and austere, luminous textures.

15 – 27 September

Directed by Rémi Dufay, D’amour et d’eau fraîche is a stage adventure that celebrates movement, friendship and the unforeseen. Rémi Dufay and his ensemble probe margins and fragile frames, staging situations that slip away in a deliberately unsteady ceremony. The production blurs reality and magic, carrying the audience through a joyful, rocambolic wandering. A lively, generous performance that refuses stillness and favours continual transformation.

In French.

Sunday 20 September, 11:00

An intimate morning concert presented by OCG, offering a refined selection of chamber repertoire and lyrical pieces. The programme privileges clarity of tone, delicate textures and expressive phrasing, creating moments of quiet reflection and radiant intensity. Chamber musicians engage in close musical dialogue, highlighting melodic lines and subtle dynamics. The performance favors attentive listening and rewards with emotional depth, delicate colours and a sense of shared presence.

27 August – 18 October

Scène Vagabonde’s seventh edition brings a compact program of contemporary theatre and music, presenting three contrasting stage works — “Par le bout du nez”, “Quadrille” and “Prima facie” — alongside a concert by Orchestre Tout Puissant Marcel Duchamp as part of La Bâtie-Festival de Genève. Across intimate stagings the festival favors inventive direction, close ensemble interplay and a balance of wit and intensity, offering encounters that privilege physical presence, tonal variety and rigorous dramaturgy.
