Eva Risser – Ensemble Ensemble

Booking Required

Initiated by Eve Risser, Ensemble Ensemble brings together five musicians whose roots in Romania, Norway, Alsace and the Dordogne fold folk fragments into an organic sound. Mari Kvien Brunvoll (vocals, electronics), George Dumitriu (violin, viola), Kim Myhr (guitar), Toma Gouband (drums) and Eve Risser (piano, flute, vocals) weave elemental textures where improvisation meets delicate composition. The music unfolds like a map of shared memory, intimate and exploratory, shifting between lyricism and raw rhythmic pulse.

Frank Martin’s opera La Tempête, after Shakespeare with a libretto by August Wilhelm von Schlegel and Johann Ludwig Tieck, returns in a new French-language production. Conductor Thierry Fischer leads the score while director Netia Jones stages a striking conception that makes electricity the source of Prospero’s powers. The cast brings poetic intensity to the island’s drama—Miranda, Caliban and the spirit Ariel—blending vocal nuance, atmospheric design and inventive staging to revisit exile, magic and reconciliation.

15 September – 11 October

A darkly comic solo play about obsession and domestic chaos. When Michel finds a rare record he has long sought, he prepares a perfect hour to listen — but family, neighbours and a drip that will wreck the disc steadily intrude. The piece skewers selfishness with sharp humour and precise staging, combining intimate realism and heightened farce to probe human smallness and the desperate desire for solitude.

Collaborator Bager Sen contributes mantra compositions and aksak rhythms, rooted in ancestral meters. The piece balances cinematic imagery and intimate ritual, inviting an immersive, pulse-driven listening experience.

The evening continues with record selections by La Poya and Fuxy Lady, extending the event’s raw, underground energy.
