About This Event

The Institut Français d’Écosse in Edinburgh presents °Up: Violin vs Football – France Showcase on Tuesday 18 August 2026. This live duet brings together a violinist and a footballer in a performance that fuses freestyle football with classical strings. Created by Compagnie Le Phare, the piece transforms the stage into a space for physical and musical interplay, featuring Gabriel Majou on violin alongside an unnamed footballer, both responding to one another in real time. The show originated as a solo work before evolving into a duo after the performers discovered a natural on-stage chemistry. Ticket prices are available on the venue’s website.

The performance features a unique blend of freestyle football and classical strings, with the footballer and violinist responding to each other in real time. The show originated as a solo work before evolving into a duo, with the two artists discovering a natural on-stage chemistry.

Gabriel Majou plays the violin alongside Paul Molina, the footballer. The violinist's playfulness is matched by the footballer's skill, as they engage in a poetic interplay on stage.

The event takes place at the Institut Français d'Écosse in Edinburgh on Tuesday 18 August 2026. Ticket prices are available on the venue's website.
