Festival des Solistes de l'OSR

1-2-3 FEBRUARY 2024

From 1st to 3rd of February 2024, three evenings were held with an eclectic programme featuring none other than the Orchestra's musicians. In the modern setting of the Bâtiment des Forces Motrices, Jonathan Nott, musical and artistic director of the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, is rethinking the format of the traditional symphony concert and proposing a new way of approaching the repertoire.
