Eight singers, a thousand possibilities. Roomful of Teeth transforms the human voice into a truly multi-dimensional instrument. Winner of multiple Grammy Awards, the American ensemble brings together performers whose virtuosity and curiosity have helped redefine the art of vocal music over the past fifteen years. For this exceptional programme, the singers explore two distinct ways of telling stories through the voice.

On one side is Partita for 8 Voices by Caroline Shaw, a landmark work in which timbres intersect, collide and combine in a fascinating feat of sonic architecture. On the other is Elevator Songs, created in collaboration with Gabriel Kahane, a sequence of musical narratives that sketches a mosaic of lives, eras and sensibilities. Balancing collective precision with interpretative freedom, the eight voices create a space where humour, vulnerability, memory and wonder coexist. A concert of rare intensity from an ensemble that turns every appearance into an event.

Hosted in collaboration with the Grand Théâtre de Genève
