Victoria Hall: the place to be
Culture
This iconic Genevan hall that’s dedicated to classical music features a fully charged concert programme this winter. During the holidays, festivities begin with Handel’s Messiah (December 21 & 22), followed by a Christmas concert (December 24), Verdi’s Grand Gala (December 27) and the New Year’s Concert (January 8). That will be followed by performances by cellist Yo-Yo Ma with Renaud Capuçon on January 29, Debussy and Stravinsky by violinist Midori Goto in February, and Evgueni Kissine on the piano on March 10. Some of the performances are part of the “Les Grands Interprètes” series, which regroups eight concerts by great masters to be held from October to June.
