Martin Engstroem? He is quite simply one of the most significant figures in the musical world today. For the readers of this magazine, he is above all the creator of the Verbier Festival, but he has also been a concert organiser, agent, friend and mentor of the greatest classical artists of our time, from Herbert Karajan to Valery Gergiev, from Clifford Curzon to Yuja Wang, by way of Martha Argerich, Barbara Hendricks, Carlos Kleiber and many others. In this book entitled From Stockholm to Verbier, he confides for the first time. In these interviews with Bertrand Dermoncourt, Martin Engstroem talks, with a consummate art of portraiture and anecdote, about the major figures he has met. But not only that. Through the story of his life, punctuated by crises and successes, rich in twists and turns, he unveils the behind-the-scenes of the musical world, those of the Verbier Festival of course, sharing a few formulae and secrets along the way. An uplifting read for all lovers of music and culture.
