It is at the very heart of the Swiss Alps that the magical Verbier Festival has operated for over twenty years. Friendliness, relaxation and excellence are the key ingredients that ensure the success of this festival. Among the novelties of the season, we note a large focus on vocal repertoire, the introduction of a reduced fee for young people under 26 years old and the opportunity for young musicians to participate in the Verbier Festival Summer Camp from 7th of July to the 3rd of August.
Piano recitals, chamber music, symphonic concerts and operatic events will take place throughout an eclectic program that will take you on a majestic journey through the centuries. Martha Argerich, Anne Sofie von Otter, Joshua Bell, Grigory Sokolov but also Youssou N’Dour and many others who will be performing for the pleasure of festival-goers.
On the 20th of July, violinists Daniel Hope, Nancy Wu, l’altiste Lawrence Power, cellists Jonathan Cohen, Marie-Elisabeth Hecker, contrabassist Leigh Mesh, mezzo-soprano Anne Sofie von Otter, pianists Simon Crawford-Phillips and Martin Helmchen will all be live in concert at the Verbier church performing the works of Dvořák, Sitt, Brahms, Schumann, Joachim and even Marx.
