Verbier wants Peace

The programme and organisation of the Verbier Festival has just undergone some upheaval following Valery Gergiev’s request to resign as musical director of the Verbier Festival Orchestra. The opening of the 29th edition will be a concert redesigned in favour of a call for peace, solidarity and the inclusion of musicians of all nationalities. Italian conductor Gianandrea Noseda will lead this Peace Concert on 15 July 2022 and also the other events originally planned with Gergiev, the resigned pro-Putin Russian conductor.
