Clairières dans le ciel

Booking Required

A recital shaped by two young duos, centred on Lili Boulanger’s luminous song cycle Clairières dans le ciel, set to 13 poems by Francis Jammes. Geneva-born soprano Lisa Tourniaire and pianist Mathis Calzetta trace its fragile radiance and emotional depth, while tenor Gabriel Colin and pianist Alice Businaro open the evening with Britten’s Les Illuminations, inspired by Rimbaud. Musicologist Richard Cole introduces the programme, guiding listeners through a refined landscape of poetry, intimacy and late-Romantic colour.

Focus Jeune Création brings together a new generation of Romand artists over two weeks, presenting five bold and hybrid performances that blur theatre, performance and live art. The program explores emergent writing and stage practices— from plateau-based text to pieces rooted in the real—offering layered, often indisciplinary approaches that question formats and invent languages for a transforming world. Accompanying meetings and discussions extend the works and open insight into creative processes.
