Ida et Carmelita

Perched on a sun‑kissed promontory above Montreux, the Hôtel du Rigi‑Vaudois watches over the glittering lake and the snow‑capped Alps. Its quiet corridors echo with the steady tread of a solitary colonel, who spends his days trekking the mountain paths and his evenings gazing at the moonlit waters from a lone window. The crisp alpine air and sweeping panoramas create a backdrop of both serenity and hidden depth, inviting travelers to linger in its tranquil charm.

Into this stillness arrive two spirited young women, Ida and Carmelita, whose lively presence stirs the hotel's calm. Their friendship, ambitions, and the mysteries they carry begin to intertwine with the colonel’s disciplined routine, hinting at alliances and tensions that will unfold against the breathtaking scenery. Listeners will be drawn into a world where personal histories clash with the majestic landscape, setting the stage for a tale of love, intrigue, and the unexpected bonds forged in the shadows of the Swiss Alps.
