The various buildings that make up the site in Geneva are located in the city centre, in the district of Plainpalais. The students thus benefit from the amenities of the city centre (accessibility, shops and services, leisure) and physical proximity to our main partner institutions: the Grand Théâtre de Genève, the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, the Orchestre de Chambre de Genève, Contrechamps, etc. The main concert halls are also nearby (Victoria Hall, Bâtiment des Forces Motrices, Studio Ansermet, etc.)
The Dufour building is the main building at the Geneva site. The site also contains several concert venues, including the Blackbox, the Centre des cultures, a cinema, a cafeteria, a lecture hall, a video studio, and numerous classrooms. Also at the site are the offices of the directors of the team coordinating the Master’s in music education course.
A short distance away, the Petitot building houses the Stock Exchange room, several classrooms, the Centre de musique électroacoustique, the recording studio and most of the activities run by the early music department. There are also classrooms at 58, rue du Stand. The percussion centre is the focus of the activities and instrument store for the percussion classes. It is situated underneath the Uni-Mail esplanade.
Finally, the Synagogue building contains all of the HEM’s administrative services (Management, Studies Office, Accounting, Human Resources, Communication, Production, Coordination of Teaching, Research) and the CMG-HEM library.
