OSR Festival at Genève-Plage

Immerse yourself in an open-air musical evening with conductor Margaryta Grynyvetska!

The programme will open with Florence Price’s Colonial Dance, a vibrant orchestral piece that blends classical textures with folk rhythms.

Next up is John Adams’ Saxophone Concerto, performed by Valentine Michaud. A captivating modern work that showcases the alto saxophone, inspired by the sounds of jazz and carried by a bright orchestral writing.

The evening will culminate in a grand finale with Antonín Dvorák’s famous Symphony No. 9 ‘From the New World’, a masterpiece of the symphonic repertoire.

Released in 1927, The Lodger: A Story of the London Fog (known in French as Cheveux d’or) is Alfred Hitchcock’s first true thriller and the film that launched his career.

The story transports us to a London shrouded in fog, where a serial killer, reminiscent of Jack the Ripper, is spreading terror. At the same time, an enigmatic man (Ivor Novello), bearing a striking resemblance to the description of the murderer, moves in with the Bunting family to rent a room. Throughout the film, viewers are thus plunged into constant doubt as to the lodger’s guilt.

With this film, Hitchcock lays the foundations of his style, which would make him the undisputed master of suspense. A must-see for all lovers of mystery and cinema classics, presented by chef Philippe Béran!

Join us for a Roaring Twenties-themed evening, paying tribute to Joséphine Baker, a leading artistic figure in 1920s Paris. A dancer, singer and revue star, she embodied the vibrancy of an era in which jazz, modernity and the avant-garde spirit permanently redefined the European music scene.

Combining remembrance and celebration, join us for a warm and festive evening filled with rhythm and freedom, featuring the American singer KENNEDY, who will perform Joséphine Baker’s greatest hits, arranged especially for the occasion by Alexandre Mastrangelo.
