At the 55th edition of the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland, the Montreux Jazz Artists Foundation teamed up with the New York-based Lang Lang International Music Foundation to shine a light on the need to build bridges using the universal language of music.
Under the theme jazz meets classic , Switzerland-based Italian Nigerian singer and pianist Afra Kane, alongside Italian American pianist Valentina Kaufman, experimented with different genres in a sold-out concert on July 12.
Due to the festival s reduced format this year and the COVID-19 restrictions on public gatherings, only 150 music lovers were allowed into the Petit Theater Fairmont Le Montreux Palace.
