Always ready to take on the wildest challenges, the orchestra has won numerous awards, including one from the New York Times, which wrote: "GECA has now changed the game in the world of classical music".

Acclaimed for its unusual multi-disciplinary shows fusing music, dance, theater and circus, Geneva Camerata also creates surprising encounters between different musical worlds, ranging from classical to jazz, baroque, contemporary, rock, electro and world music. 
In recent seasons, GECA has created a number of extraordinary projects, including La Symphonie du Mirage with director and acrobat Yoann Bourgeois, Forever in your arms with Marie-Claude Pietragalla, Dance of the Sun with choreographer and dancer Juan Kruz Díaz de Garaio Esnaola, and Revolta, directed by choreographers Kader Attou and Grichka.

The orchestra has also collaborated with some of the world's leading artists, including Emmanuel Pahud, Gautier Capuçon, Patricia Kopatchinskaja, Thomas Hampson, Tigran Hamasyan, Avishai Cohen, Patricia Petibon, Richard Galliano, Isabelle Adjani, Sophie Marceau, Fanny Ardant, Angélique Kidjo, Buika and Abd al Malik.

Alongside its concerts in Geneva, the orchestra tours extensively, performing at prestigious venues in Switzerland and abroad, including the Berlin Philharmonic, the Hamburg Elbphilharmonie, the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées in Paris, the Montreux Jazz Festival, the Arts Center in Seoul, Musashino Hall in Tokyo, Sala São Paulo and 92Y in New York.

In the 23/24 season, the Geneva Camerata will celebrate its tenth anniversary, presenting audiences with a program that brings together a wide range of worlds, styles and cultures. Among the highlights of this anniversary season will be the return of several legendary artists who have marked the orchestra's history, as well as unusual projects such as a "Marathon" day during which the instrumentalists will give six consecutive concerts, combining classical, flamenco, rock, funk, gypsy, oriental and soul music.

Recognised as one of today’s most audacious conductors and pianists, David Greilsammer has brought to life numerous innovative projects, world premieres, as well as ground-breaking encounters between different arts and cultures.
