March of the Women - Concert for the International Women's day

Film Concert organised by the French, British and Belgian embassies, featuring Les Inoubliables to celebrate women's rights.

March of the Women - A concert illuminating female composers

This concert proposes a dialogue between heritage and contemporary creation. The first half will focus on French, British and Belgian women composers of the past, presented in the form of a chamber trio for piano, violin, and cello, with vocal interventions by a soprano.

The second half of the concert will feature Les Inoubliables’ composer-in-residence, Céline Fankhauser, a contemporary composer living in Bern, who will perform her music on stage.

Through this program, we aim to celebrate continuity, creativity, and the enduring voices of women in music.

Free admission after registration
