Classical opera and dance concert halls Lausanne

A unique sound, an equally unique conception: in conclusion, let's go to a recital! When you visit the cathedral, you'll notice the imposing organs. With 7,396 pipes, 6 manuals, 2 pedalboards and some 100 stops, they were designed to faithfully reproduce French classical and symphonic music, or German romantic and baroque. A masterpiece of technology, offering a juxtaposition of styles to be appreciated while listening to a concert, given regularly throughout the year, in exceptional acoustics.

Specialising in early music, the association des Goûts réunis organises concerts in the church of Villamont (avenue de Villamont 13), whose organ favours the German baroque, instrumental and vocal repertoire; but also in the church of Saint-Laurent, which lends itself well to listening to works with a double choir; as well as in the lounge of the historical museum of Lausanne, for a more intimate atmosphere. The concert season takes place from January to June, so don't hesitate to visit the site to see the concerts on offer.

An orchestra of young professionals, the Sinfonietta de Lausanne performs mainly at the Salle Métropole and Salle Paderewski (Montbenon Casino). It specializes in themed concerts, which are very popular with children. In all, each year it presents programs of chamber music, symphonies for full orchestra, operas, film music and comedy shows. In summer, it offers free open-air concerts in the Parc Mon Repos.
