In her series Verbier Generation Stories, produced for medici.tv's Studio 30 at the 30th anniversary edition of the Verbier Festival, musicologist, author, producer, and lecturer Michèle Larivière takes us behind the scenes for a look at the colorful personalities and supportive organizations that form the lifeblood of this one-of-a-kind Alpine event. In this first installment, Larivière introduces us to the Verbier Festival Academy, which has fostered the artistic talents of 2,000 promising musicians since 1994, serving as an invaluable springboard for the careers of multiple big-name artists—like mezzo-soprano Adèle Charvet, who talks about her Academy experiences here!
