ETHNO FRIDAYS - TRIBUTE TO RENÉ ZOSSO

A MAN FROM GENEVA IN THE LAND OF THE HURDY-GURDY - A TRIBUTE TO RENÉ ZOSSO

René Zosso (1935-2020) was a voice, a hurdy-gurdy, a breath of fresh air, and an audacious creator who revolutionized the interpretation of traditional and early music. In the fertile furrow he opened up, this festive concert invites us to travel through multiple repertoires and worlds, where voices, hurdy-gurdies and drones harmonize in the service of timeless emotion.

Concert organized by Ateliers d'ethnomusicologie and AMR, with the support of the City of Geneva and Fonds culturel Sud.
