Verbier from 19/07 to 23/07: Music at its highest

Nestled in the heart of the Swiss Alps, the village of Verbier is a popular destination, renowned as much for its breathtaking scenery as for its refined art of living. In summer, this Alpine paradise is transformed into a classical music mecca thanks to the famous Verbier Festival. 

 Since its creation, this not-to-be-missed event has attracted the greatest artists and young talents from the four corners of the globe. For several weeks, music lovers have the opportunity to attend masterful concerts, intimate recitals and unique encounters between masters and students. The festival stages, set in the heart of the mountains, offer an exceptional setting, where natural beauty blends with the magic of notes. 

Since its inception, this unmissable event has attracted the greatest artists and young talents from all over the world. For several weeks, music lovers have the opportunity to attend masterful concerts, intimate recitals and unique encounters between masters and students. The festival stages, set up in the heart of the mountains, offer an exceptional setting, where natural beauty blends with the magic of music. Three major concerts are on the programme for this breathtaking stay. The great conductor Simon Rattle conducts Wagner and Strauss and Rachmaninov's stunning Piano Concerto No. 3 with virtuoso Kirill Gerstein. Dvorák's 9th, the famous New World Symphony by Gábor Takács-Nagy, will also be a highlight (with the beautiful stylist Mao Fujita also in attendance) before the recital by the sublime Khatia Buniatishvili! Other superb concerts are available as options, such as recitals by Joshua Bell and Lucas Debargue, and a lovely tribute to Josephine Baker by the adorable mezzo Adèle Charvet. Stars at their peak!
