L’Espace Saint-Gervais, housed within the historic Temple of Saint-Gervais, operates in partnership with the Protestant Parish of Saint-Gervais-Pâquis. This site, significant for its spiritual and historical heritage, sits atop notable archaeological remains and serves as a cultural space in central Geneva, hosting a range of musical events and activities throughout the year.
Samuel Labarthe (reader), cellist Ophélie Gaillard and pianist Philippe Dinkel present a collaborative evening blending spoken word and chamber music. Their interplay highlights narrative rhythm and the tonal qualities of Bouvier’s prose.
The program examines Nicolas Bouvier’s travel writing, notably L’Usage du monde, and investigates how journey, memory and observation shape literary voice. Readings interlace with musical responses to reveal emotional textures of place and the art of travel narrative.
