The Verbier Festival has been life-changing for a whole generation of artists. Verbier Generation Stories is a series of interviews, discussions and exchanges between musicians who have made their start at Verbier, and self-described ‘radio guy’, Charles Sigel.

The second of a two-part conversation. From happy anecdotes to memories of life on the road, cellist and Verbier Festival Academy alumnus Lionel Cottet recounts his experiences and encounters with other great musicians to Charles Sigel. Interview recorded under the Geneva sun in summer 2020.
