PRIX YVES PATERNOT: 10TH ANNIVERSARY
To mark its tenth anniversary, the Prix Yves Paternot brings together several of its laureates. Each summer, the prize recognises an artist of the Academy at the outset of a major career — ten years of artists shaped in Verbier and now active on the international stage.

Several former laureates return to Verbier for this concert, each now pursuing a distinct artistic path. Their presence reflects the role the Prix Yves Paternot played at a formative stage in their development, as well as the careers that have unfolded over the past decade. The programme brings together opera scenes by Rossini, Donizetti, Bizet and Mozart, alongside instrumental works for solo violin and piano trio. Alternating between solo performances and ensemble pieces, it offers a clear portrait of these artists today, reunited for a single concert.
