A powerful operatic diptych directed by Stéphane Ghislain Roussel, in partnership with the Grand Théâtre de Genève, L’Empereur d’Atlantis, preceded by En vertu de…, unfolds across two iconic venues in one evening.
The first part, staged at the UN, explores contemporary democratic fragilities through Eugene Birman’s modern work, before the audience moves to the Comédie de Genève for Viktor Ullmann’s haunting chamber opera composed in a concentration camp during WWII—a dark, ironic fable on tyranny, death, and the madness of absolute power.
In French, English & German with surtitles in French and English.
Now in its 28th edition, Voix de Fête gathers a chorus of francophone voices across nearly fifty concerts on a dozen stages.

A tribute to Michel Bühler brings several interpreters together, while spontaneous jam nights and collaborative sets foreground live intensity and cross-genre dialogue.
