Mozart — Requiem, Orchestre Concertus

Booking Required

Led by conductor Matthieu Schweyer, Orchestre Concertus presents Mozart’s Requiem with soloists Alida Barbasini (soprano), Mi‑Young Kim (mezzo‑soprano), Daniel Duri (tenor) and Seong‑Ho Han (bass). The performance balances intimate choral passages and thunderous orchestral climaxes, exploring grief, transcendence and ritual. Sparse orchestration and dramatic vocal lines are shaped with attention to dynamic contrast and vocal colour, creating a moving, cinematic soundworld that alternates between hushed prayer and overwhelming intensity.

Reuniting to celebrate the jubilees of Robin Girod and Nelson Schaer, Duck Duck Grey Duck returns with long-time collaborator Pierre-Henri Beyrière to perform their repertoire with guest musicians. Pioneers of Geneva’s independent rock scene in the 2010s, the band blends artistic rigour, a taste for experimentation and a keen sense of melody. The evening promises a festive, intimate atmosphere shaped by careful arrangements and collaborative improvisation.

24 – 27 September

Choreographed by Valeska Romero Curiqueo, Pewma (Mapudungun for “dream”) weaves dance, performance, live sound and poetry to trace transmissions between bodies. The piece confronts peripheral, wounded and violently marked identities through ritualized gestures and sensual collisions, invoking Venus as a figure of omen, destruction and rebirth. Live violin, synthesizers and vocals shape a tense, luminous soundscape as bodies dissolve and reconstitute, staging desire, friction and collective memory.

24 September – 7 October

Directed and performed by Eve Aouizerate, Amours subversives stages a wry, intimate interrogation of gender and desire. With performers Mathilde Lyon and Dylan Poletti, the piece pivots on a provocative premise — a young woman’s decision to abandon a nascent career for the tradwife ideal — and unfolds as a personal theatrical essay on power, intimacy and the contradictions of femininity in 2026. Sparse staging and candid narration create a fierce, tender atmosphere.

In French.

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.

In French.

24 – 27 September

Written by Stéphane Bouquet, Six heures plus tard is an intimate stage performance for two performers that explores the fragile bonds between a man and a woman through poetic text, live-filmed images, spare lighting and pared-down stage presence. The piece treats silence as a shared, collective resource and recomposes itself according to each venue’s architecture and the state of the bodies, creating an unusual proximity and contemplative atmosphere.

In French.

25 – 26 September

Myriam Baroukh dismantles the checklist of modern life — exams, steady jobs, marriage, children, mortgages — to ask what remains once the boxes are ticked. With sharp, intimate stand-up, she navigates happiness, antidepressants, a difficult birth, artificial intelligence, urban wildlife and the strain of care and exile. Her voice mixes wry observation and emotional honesty, turning personal setbacks into wry, human comedy. Her rapid-fire anecdotes and unexpected images keep the audience off-balance, exploring empathy and absurdity.

In French.
