For more than forty years, the Ensemble Contrechamps has worked closely with a large number of composers, conductors, and artists – such as Rebecca Saunders, Pierre Boulez, Chiyoko Szlavnics, Christine Sun Kim, and Michael Jarrell, among many others – across international stages. Developing new presentation formats – like installation and radio concerts, research laboratories, or virtual tours – it offers a hybrid identity between orchestra and company. Partnering with the Geneva University of Music allows Contrechamps to stay in touch with the freshest ideas and pass on expertise across generations.

With over twenty records released, their current and upcoming releases include a surround-sound portrait CD of Bryn Harrison on the Neu Records label, with a portrait of Chiyoko Szlavnics due on the same label in 2023
