The Vevey Spring Classic and the Vibiscum Festival are thrilled to announce the start of an exclusive annual artistic partnership with an exceptional open-air concert on Place du Marché in Vevey featuring the eminent Belcanto tenor Juan Diego Flórez.

This union between two emblematic festivals in the same city illustrates their shared commitment to offering a unifying musical experience in an extraordinary setting.

Together with the Strumentisti del Teatro alla Scala and the Vevey Spring Classic Festival Orchestra, the Peruvian superstar will perform a unique concert on Sunday afternoon, June 2nd 2024 (Closing Concert of the Vibiscum Festival), promising an experience rich in elegance, virtuosity and finesse – traits that have forged his reputation.

Juan Diego Flórez, a phenomenon in the world of opera, will captivate both the general public and the most discerning musical connoisseurs.

A regular presence on prestigious stages such as the Metropolitan Opera in New York, Royal Opera House in London, Vienna State Opera, Salzburg Festival, Teatro alla Scala in Milan and Opéra national de Paris, Juan Diego Flórez has left an indelible mark of excellence in Belcanto roles by Rossini, Bellini and Donizetti.

The presence of Daniel Müller-Schott, one of the world’s leading cellists, performing Saint-Saëns’ beloved Concerto, will add a magical touch to this grandiose afternoon, under the direction of Maestro Wilson Hermanto. An unforgettable event in a unique setting that will delight music lovers from all horizons.
