Mi Alma — La Yegros

Booking Required

Argentine artist La Yegros blends ancestral traditions, contemporary texts and wild Latin-American rhythms with rare finesse. Driven by a communal spirit, she crosses genres and borders alongside GECA and Venezuelan drummer Edwin Sanz, exploring cumbia, carnavalito and chamamé in vibrant folkloric colours. This programme, rooted in popular energy, is juxtaposed with the moving intensity of Dvořák’s Symphony No. 7, creating a powerful dialogue between contagiously liberated song and symphonic depth.

Soundtrack: Finding Home blends song, staged movement and spoken monologue to trace the fragile journey of a newcomer to Geneva. Performed by a mix of professional and amateur artists, the piece navigates doubt, joy and the search for belonging through intimate vocal textures and choreographed tableaux. The city is imagined as a living presence that answers and challenges the protagonist, while lighting and sound sketches create shifting atmospheres, moving from disorientation to tentative connection.

Choreographed by Saša Asentić, Le Sacre du printemps is a reimagined Stravinsky landmark performed by the inclusive company Per.Art. Drawing on historical versions by the Ballets Russes, Maurice Béjart and Pina Bausch and enriched with the voices of disabled poets from Serbia, Iran, Ukraine and the United States, the seven dancers invert the original narrative. The staging transforms ritual into a manifesto of survival, blending physical rigor, collective solidarity and poetic testimony to renew the score as a cry for life.

The route alternates between the company’s traditional itinerary and a new underground-themed walk, creating a layered experience of memory, surprise and communal discovery.
