10:30 a.m., Gstaad Chapel
Born in Zurich in 2007 to a Latvian mathematician and a Swiss jazz musician – the outstanding pianist Nik Bärtsch – Ilva Eigus is an extraordinary talent shaped by the incomparable school of Zakhar Bron. Ilva Eigus returns to Gstaad with a programme devoted to two composers who drew profound inspiration from the unique Swiss landscape: Johannes Brahms, represented by his celebrated “Thun Sonata”, and Tchaikovsky, who might never have completed his Violin Concerto without the invigorating – and soothing – atmosphere of Clarens near Montreux, on the eastern shore of Lake Geneva.
