Baxter Dury presents Allbarone, a sleek album born from a collaboration with producer Paul Epworth in a London studio. The English dandy mixes elegant pop, spoken-word touches and retrofuturistic melodies, pairing sharp lyrics with a relaxed delivery. Son of the legendary Ian Dury, he has carved a distinctive place in the British indie scene over two decades. This intimate set showcases his new songs and trademark blend of wit, melancholy and understated groove.
For its first Christmas programme, Les Ondes invites audiences on a musical journey through the rich British tradition of Christmas Carols with Peace on Earth, at St Pierre Cathedral in Geneva. Blending a cappella works with organ-accompanied pieces performed by Margot Boitard, under the direction of Léonie Cachelin, the programme spans centuries of sacred and popular heritage and features the luminous Peace on Earth by American composer Amy Beach, whose message remains profoundly relevant.
