Fondation Du Verbier Festival
In the early nineties, after twelve years working as an artists’ agent, Martin T:son Engstroem had an ambitious idea: to create a summer festival in the heart of the Swiss Alps, far from the major cities where most festivals take place. Verbier had the intimate atmosphere he felt was necessary to encourage musical excellence, and at the same time be open to the world. He imagined a festival with a resident youth orchestra and an academy where renowned artists would teach the next generation and audiences would have a wide choice of activities from early morning until late at night. In 1994, his vision became a reality.

Rotes Velo Kompanie
ROTES VELO is a company that collaborates with artists of different disciplines, that thinks across genres and questions traditional performance practice. They are raising the awareness of the young and the old, of culture enthusiasts or greenhorns for performing art in all its diversity. Each creation is understood as a new opportunity to offer a glimpse at the contradictions that make us human. From its inception their on going practice has been based on devising frameworks for collaboration, investigation and discovery of innovative ways to blur the borders between Dance, Music and Theatre. As an example, the 40 minute long documentary film “Dance in the golden age” was the company’s first attempt to use cinema as language. ROTES VELO is an emerging performing arts company founded in 2011 in Switzerland under the direction of Exequiel Barreras, Emilio H. Díaz Abregú and Hella Immler. They realise at least one production per year and their shows brought ROTES VELO to Argentina, through Liechtenstein, Germany, Portugal, Spain, Poland and of course across Switzerland. So far more than fifty artists from seventeen different countries, ranging from dancers and musicians to actors, have collaborated with the company contributing in the creation of artwork that always aims at conveying critical and conceptual ideas in an accessible, even entertaining way. In 2016 ROTES VELO was granted an award by the city of St. Gallen in recognition for its „constant development of demanding and high-quality projects”. Both positive reactions from the audience and generous support from foundations and culture promoters have been motivating factors to keep on expanding the scope of the company. Always aiming for the exchange and mutual stimulation on a cultural level, the company organizes and offers in addition to the performances, dance training, workshops and projects - like the permanent work with a group of elderly people.

Bejart Ballet Lausanne
Since its inception in 1987, Béjart Ballet Lausanne is a reference in the choreographic world. Chosen as his successor by Maurice Béjart, Gil Roman is leading the company and preserving its artistic excellence, since the disappearance of the master in 2007. Maurice Béjart always wanted to open the world of the ballet to a larger audience. Animated by the same spirit, Gil Roman and his dancers perform all over the world for great events or official receptions, as well as events to the profit of charity events. Béjart Ballet Lausanne is one of the very few companies able to fill vast spaces such as the NHK Hall of Tokyo, the Kremlin State Palace of Moscow, Odeon of Herodes Atticus in Athens, the Palais des congrès de Paris, Forest National in Brussels or the Patinoire de Malley-Lausanne. Since 2007, with his search and work for contemporary creation, Gil Roman maintains and develops the repertoire of the Béjart Ballet Lausanne. The work of Maurice Béjart is at the heart of this repertoire, with emblematic choreographies, as The Rite of Spring, Boléro, The Ninth Symphony or Ballet for Life but Gil Roman also wants to present the variety of this repertoire, with Piaf or The Magic Flute for example. Choreographer for 20 years, the artistic director also nourished the repertoire with his own creations. Choreographers like Alonzo King, Tony Fabre, Christophe Garcia, Giorgio Madia or Julio Arozarena also contributed to the creative development of the Béjart Ballet Lausanne. The Company remains faithful to its vocation: preserving Maurice Béjart’s work, while remaining a space of creation.
