Geneva’s Orchestre Tout Puissant Marcel Duchamp offers a nomadic musical odyssey that blends fervent rhythms, sonic experimentation and a spirit of freedom. For nearly twenty years the collective has shaped a distinctive sound: layered voices, interweaving textures and songs that confront the present without succumbing to despair. Carried by an impressive constellation of brass, strings, percussion, marimbas and guitars, more than fifteen musicians create generous, mobile and intensely alive music that moves between communal celebration and joyful escape.
Additional free performances:
Written, directed and performed by Adrien Buensod and Maxence Marmy, Le vol des mouettes is an absurd tragicomedy about isolation and the ritualisation of bureaucracy. Two government agents stranded on a remote island decode confidential messages as routine and procedure acquire surreal weight. Actor director Martine Corthésy shapes the performers’ delicate balance between precision and bewilderment; Lam Do sculpts the world with spare lighting and technical design. The piece unfolds with dark humour and lingering unease, attentive to timing and silence.

Cross Rhymez brings together a dozen MCs, beatmakers, beatboxers and dancers in a collective, participatory show created during a series of residencies uniting Swiss artists and contemporary artists from the Arabophone scene. The performance blends improvised vocal exchanges, layered beats and physical movement to explore cultural dialogue, cross‑rhythms and community voice. Intimate and energetic, the piece invites audience interaction and celebrates collaborative creation across languages and musical traditions.
Festival Kurai x Gesa gathers leading and emerging electronic artists across two outdoor stages over three days. The programming blends immersive live sets, modular synthesis and DJ performances with curated production design and light textures that shift from late-afternoon warmth to nocturnal intensity. Expect layered soundscapes, rhythmic drive and communal dance energy, framed by careful sound engineering and stage dramaturgy. Free shuttles link festival stages and the late-night club programme.
