The Ella Fitzgerald scene, nestled in the heart of the greenery of the La Grange Park, offers free outdoor concert evenings until August 22. Music will resonate every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Visit the backstage.
Priscitouf The First, Geneva rapper of Congolese origin, will deliver a mystical performance between Afro Drill, Dubstep, Gospel and Rumba. She will share the scene with Mairo, whose sharp flow and sharp texts resonate as an echo to a generation in search of meaning, announce the organizers.
Always on the rap side, Oxmo Puccino will come to celebrate an exceptional career for twenty years. Another event evening: the Jamaican legend of reggae, Burning Spear who will carry a message of peace. As for Jeff Mills, a techno pioneer, he will reject the borders of the groove with his Afro-jazz-feurist Tomorrow Comes The Harvest project alongside Jean-Phi Dary and Prabhu Edouard.
Dialogue between continents
Placed under the sign of discovery and musical diversity, the programming will make the continents dialogue: the singer-trombonist Catalan Rita paid, the Cumbia of the Meridian Brothers, the Vaudou electro of the Nana Benz of Togo and the Samba of Rogê will make the public.
Rock enthusiasts will vibrate with the psyche energy of the psychedelic porn crumpets and the garage rock of the Swiss group The Jackets. The Lemon Twigs will transport the public in the 1970s with their retro rock. There will also be pop, hip-hop, soul and funk-jazz. Classical music is not to be outdone with in particular a world tour in dances from the Geneva Chamber Orchestra.
The closing evening will be hosted by Bamby, a Afro-Caribbean queen from Guyana, who will vibrate the park with burning energy. Concerts take place on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
