Mountain Spirit

11.30 am, Eggli Lounge
Ascent starting at 11 am
Descent starting around 1.45 pm
Embracing the slogan “Mountain Spirit”, Gstaad Menuhin Festival & Academy is ascending the Eggli summit this summer. The idea: open skies, closeness to the sun and stars, a laid-back atmosphere ... and, as a result, an entirely fresh concert experience! The event kicks off on Sunday morning with a leisurely brunch. Four cellists from the Gstaad Festival Orchestra set the perfect musical vibe with a joyful blend of genres and hues, ranging from Debussy’s Clair de Lune to Wagner’s Lohengrin!
