Rock’n’Truck Festival

Three bands share a single stage in a compact rock evening that moves from raw punk energy to introspective progressive sound. THE GREEN FATHERS fuse rock, punk, garage and blues with freshly recorded material, delivering punchy riffs and gritty vocals. SONIC RADE offers electrifying rock-pop and haunting melodies, presenting tracks from their fifth album Berlin. LEMNIS CAT, a sixteen-year-old multi-instrumentalist, channels progressive-rock influences with modern, introspective phrasing. The programme balances high-voltage drive and luminous, reflective passages.

Un Jackpot de rêve – comédie musicale

Performances

Théâtre de la Madeleine

Written and directed by Raphaëlle Farman, this musical comedy follows six eccentric lottery winners whose most improbable dreams suddenly come within reach. With the charismatic show host Macha and the scheming production director Florence, the ensemble embarks on escapades that leap from Arthurian chivalry to the surface of the moon. A troupe of spirited performers animates comic tableaux, while playful staging, brisk choreography and bursts of onstage magic create an exuberant, nostalgic atmosphere that celebrates imagination and folly.

Insuline

Performances

Théâtre le Galpon

Bold and poetic, “Insuline” is a powerful denouncement of virilist and heteronormative excesses. Combining the sharp words of Lou Lepori, the music of Marc Berman, and the performance of Cédric Leproust, this fiery recital challenges conventions and unspoken norms. This queer show, driven by tumultuous and subversive expression, celebrates a body that rejects imposed normality.

Sofia — Tribute to Sofia Gubaidulina

Performances

Maison Tavel

Conceived as an homage to composer Sofia Gubaïdulina (1931–2025), Sofia gathers chamber formations to inhabit intimate domestic rooms and perform a curated selection from her expansive chamber-music repertoire. Pieces are chosen to multiply listening instants and to revive the private character of chamber music. Prepared in collaboration with professors from the Haute École de Musique and performed by their students, the project pairs careful scenography and subtle sound devices to awaken curiosity and encourage close, attentive listening.

The project is organised by Ensemble Vide, an interdisciplinary platform for contemporary music and artistic research.

Dominique Pifarély & François Couturier

Performances

AMR

Violinist Dominique Pifarély and pianist François Couturier reunite in a delicate duo built around their album Préludes et Chansons. Nearly thirty years after Poros, the programme explores attentive musical dialogue, where improvisation, lyricism and silence create a porous exchange. The musicians listen and respond, honoring distinct paths while shaping a shared language. Sparse, luminous textures and sudden intensities evoke intimacy and longing, transporting listeners through moments of reflection and improvised discovery.
