Other than their star status, what do Miles Davis, Nina Simone, Ella Fitzgerald, David Bowie, Prince, Elton John, Stevie Wonder, Pharell Williams and Lady Gaga\u00a0all have in common? SoBARNES<\/a> has the answer: they have all given concerts deemed \u2018historic\u2019 at the Montreux Jazz Festival. A list that will leave you dumbstruck. And even though the festival was cancelled in 2020 for the first time in 53 years due to the health crisis, the legend of Montreux has never been so alive. As is evident from the line-up for the\u00a0Autumn of music<\/a>,<\/em> set to bring together young Swiss talent and big international names for promising jam sessions from 12 to 17\u00a0October.<\/p>\n Yep, there\u2019s something magical about Montreux. Set between Lake Geneva and the Alps, with the vineyards of Lavaux as a backdrop, welcome to the most majestic of what the Vaud Riviera has to offer... and \u2018majestic\u2019 is exactly the word to describe this property. Built in 1906 on over an acre of land gently sloping towards the lake, it gives off an enchanting je-ne-sais-quoi<\/em> between a James Bond-style villa and the dream mansion of a modern day Orson Welles.<\/p>\n
