Part of the Festival Voix de Fête, this concert pairs Juliette Magnevasoa and the Geneva duo Beth & Patricia in an intimate evening of voice-led folk and acoustic textures. Juliette blends Malagasy roots with other influences, shaping a sensitive, living songwriting voice. Beth & Patricia mix guitar and cavaquinho, drawing on memories of Praia to turn nostalgia into tenderness on stage. The programme favours close listening and warm, immediate musical storytelling.
In early January 2022, two construction vehicles belonging to a Swiss multinational were set on fire at a gravel pit in the Geneva countryside. Over a year later, a young man — referred to as Jérémy — was arrested and suspected of involvement in the arson. Held in pre-trial detention, he was released after more than three months, following strong public support and mobilization.
