Program notes
For the first time at Verbier, the pioneering artist of Afro-Brazilian music Gilberto Gil warms up the Swiss countryside with his guitar and his voice. Univeristy graduate with a degree in business administration and Brazilian Minister of Culture from 2003 to 2006, his atypical path fuels his engaged and poetic music, all the while driven by his electric groove!
