La Compagnie Equestre et Musicale

The Compagnie Équestre & Musicale creates interdisciplinary shows based on music, equestrian art and writing.

This 2nd edition of the Compagnie Equestre et Musicale's equestrian concerts will take place in three parts.

On Friday 13 June, the Eglise Sainte-Marie-Madeleine will resound to the sounds of great classics by Mozart and Mendelssohn performed by the Loewe Quartet.

On Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 June, the Grand Manège at the Swiss National Stud Farm will be hosting the ‘Symphonie Equestre’ show, with its epic and triumphant atmosphere. Ten horses and riders will be putting on a stunning performance, combining mastery and aestheticism, all in perfect harmony to Beethoven's 7th Symphony, performed by the Orchestre de la Compagnie Equestre et Musicale!

Time: Saturday 14 June at 7.00pm // Sunday 15 June at 6.00pm

Guided tours of the Swiss National Stud Farm are organised before each show to discover the activities and the many residents of this fascinating place.

In September, the ‘Cadences et poésie’ show will feature Anne-Christine Chappot, a top-level dressage rider, with some high-school figures. Alongside her, two young pianists will enrich the musical ambience, while two poets will add emotional depth. The meeting of these three worlds will crown the end of the festival with elegance and grace.
