Peter lives in the countryside with his grandfather. One day, he goes to play near the pond, where he sees a bird, a duck, and a cat. The bird flies quickly in all directions. The duck swims in the pond, out of reach of the prowling cat. Peter's grandfather finds him and scolds him: the boy should not be wandering alone in the woods and must return home.

As soon as Peter and his grandfather leave, a wolf emerges from the woods, catches the duck, and eats it. Peter, who is watching the scene from the house, sneaks out and devises a very clever way to capture the wolf. The hunters who have been tracking the wolf arrive. Peter convinces them not to kill the animal, but to take it to the zoo.

The story is that of Peer Gynt, a young Norwegian peasant, a braggart and teller of tall tales, who travels through fjords, mountains, deserts, and oceans, and only at the end of his journey, in the twilight of his life, does he realize that true happiness was within his reach, but he failed to see it.

The story, rewritten and narrated by Casilda Regueiro, is accompanied and illustrated by musical interludes. The Lancy-Geneva Orchestra, under the artistic and musical direction of Roberto Sawicki, performs some of the most famous themes from this stage score in a more intimate version for strings.

Prince Ahmed is locked away in a tower by his father, the king, who fears the dire predictions of astrologers. The prince lives in isolation in the Alhambra palace in Granada.

Devoted to his studies under the tutelage of a strict teacher, he must under no circumstances hear of love. He learns the language of birds, which reveal to him the existence of a beautiful and mysterious Spanish princess. Crossing the barriers between the Hispanic and Muslim worlds in the name of love, nothing and no one can prevent him from being with the love of his life, not the birds of ill omen, nor the enchanted horse, nor the armed knights. Love, tolerance, and respect for differences will triumph over all obstacles.

Casilda and the musicians of the Lancy-Geneva Orchestra, conducted by Roberto Sawicki, will transport you to the magical kingdom of Al-Andalus on the Iberian Peninsula to the joyful rhythm of the fandango and the jota. 

A musical tale freely adapted from Pushkin. Three sisters dream of marrying Czar Saltan. He prefers the youngest, marries her and puts the two older sisters to work serving her in the castle. Consumed by jealousy, they take advantage of the Tsar's absence to plot a terrible revenge to make the young queen and her son disappear. But they did not count on the intervention of the extraordinary swan with magical powers who will save the Czar’s wife and her son and help Prince Gvidon win back his father's love.

A little boy is bored to death despite having a room full of toys. He asks his mother to tell him a story. His mother makes him a proposal: ‘You play, and I'll make up a story based on the toy you choose and what you do with it. Agreed?’ Thus begins a magnificent journey in which mother and son, music and storytelling come together to create wonderful images. Each new toy is illustrated by music and inspires a story as beautiful as it is surprising, evoking the atmosphere of One Thousand and One Nights. 

Three possible versions: French & German, French & English or all in French. 

Casilda has a dream: the Quartet goes on a journey in search of the most beautiful music in the world to win the Geneva Music Competition.

We travel from country to country, guided by melodies we all recognise, and immerse ourselves – we and the musicians – in the intrigues of the protagonists.

The words and music reveal the differences that make up the cultural richness of our world, which in turn feeds the imagination of the audience, who are invited to embark on this magnificent musical journey.

Dans le cadre des Concerts Famille de l’OSR sous la direction de Aziz Shokhakimov, ce concert plonge les auditeurs dans l’univers des contes slaves, avec deux histoires de la sorcière Baba Yaga racontées par Casilda Regueiro sur la musique de la 7ème symphonie de Prokofiev. L’aventure de la jeune Vasilisa qui reçoit de sa mère mourante une poupée magique. Sa belle-mère cruelle l’envoie chez Baba Yaga chercher des braises pour rallumer le feu. Grâce à la poupée elle accomplit toutes les épreuves impossibles et obtient le feu.  Dans la deuxième histoire,  Katérina part travailler chez Baba Yaga pour sauver sa famille de la faim. Ses quatre soeurs se cachent sous sa robe et l’aident grâce à ses dons. Elles découvrent que la sorcière est une tsarine ensorcelée, libérée lorsque la plus jeune la bat aux échecs. Une histoire alléchante qui explique l’origine des poupées Matriochkas.
