Our annual Fundraising Soirée returns: an evening of graceful ballet and classical music, organised by Ruth Gordon for 2025.

The Swiss Church in London is pleased to host the 2025 annual Fundraising Soirée, an evening of ballet and classical music, organised by Ruth Gordon-Jaeggi.

Each year, retired Swiss dancer and choreographer Gordon-Jaeggi creates this Soirée in support of Arts and Cultural initiatives at the Swiss Church. From choreography to costume design, she generously lends her time and artistry, joined by fellow dancers, musicians, and collaborators.

This year, we are proud to present ‘Sounds and Spirits of the Past’, a performative journey through movement and music, where echoes of lost worlds are reimagined on stage.

Featuring:

Soprano – Raphaela Papadakis

Pianist – Ricardo Gosalbo Gueno

Violinist – Elena Jáuregui

Principal Ballerina – Eleonora Moratto

Principal Dancer – Emma Lavallin

Principal Dancer – Gustavo Sousa

Proceeds from the evening will support community initiatives at The Swiss Church in London, including providing creative oppurtunities for those experiencing homelessness and poverty. Your presence and support help keep this work alive.
