Crans-Montana Classics has established itself as a unique classical music festival, where excellence, conviviality, and cultural openness meet against the spectacular backdrop of the High Plateau. Under the artistic direction of Isabelle Bagnoud Loretan, the festival brings audiences, locals, and visitors together, while fully highlighting the region’s natural and cultural heritage.
“Crans-Montana Classics continues to illuminate the High Plateau with music, combining prestigious concerts, family shows, and open-air experiences. Every event is designed to create moments of sharing and emotion.”
The festival offers a rare range of musical experiences, from indoor concerts to public master classes, musical cafés, and performances in public spaces. With the support of Michael Guttman, the musical director, Crans-Montana Classics brings together Valais, Swiss, and international artists to deliver concerts of excellence accessible to all audiences.
“We aim to break down barriers between audiences and create bridges between villages and the resort, visitors and residents. The landscape becomes an active part of our concerts, giving character and uniqueness to each event.”
Through this approach, Crans-Montana Classics confirms its position as a must-see cultural event, blending virtuosity, discovery, and shared enjoyment for audiences of all ages.
