MONTREUX, Switzerland (Reuters) -French-Lebanese trumpeter Ibrahim Maalouf gave back-to-back shows at the Montreux Jazz Festival on Monday night, performing on a floating stage built specially on Lake Geneva for a limited number of fans with a COVID 19-free certificate.
With the Swiss Alps and sailboats as a stunning backdrop, he appeared for the fourth time at one of Europe s most prestigious summer music festivals, cancelled last year due to the pandemic.
The 55th edition can welcome 1,500 people per night at four venues, about one-tenth the normal size for the two-week event.
