Les Années folles – Geneva Chamber Orchestra

Booking Required

A wave of freedom and artistic energy swept through the 1920s. For one evening, Florimont rediscovers that spirit with the Geneva Chamber Orchestra. The programme features music by Gershwin, Poulenc and Stravinsky, performed with the participation of students from the singing, guitar, classical and body-percussion classes, as well as Florimont’s Public Speaking Workshop. The students will also contribute to the visual world of the concert. An immersive scenography, created in collaboration with Télomères studio and Sophie Le Meillour, will bring this intergenerational encounter to life through images. An original production where music, education and performance come together as one.
