The concert by Rea Garvey at Zermatt Unplugged starts at 10.30 pm.
Music is being made on Lake Geneva. The jazz festival is taking place in Montreux. No time to visit the festival? You can watch the concerts of Joe Bonamassa and Buddy Guy in the livestream tonight.
"You'll be a legend before you're even 25", predicted B. B. King predicted to him as a teenager.
30 years later, Joe Bonamassa is probably the most famous guitarist in the world. His sound sounds as if he has listened very carefully to the qualities that have shaped the guitar playing of his idols.
Many fans even see him as the successor to Eric Clapton. Bonamassa is also one of the few blues musicians who still manage to fill large halls and stadiums today.
Buddy Guy - a living legend of the Chicago blues
Buddy Guy is considered a legend of Chicago blues. However, his story begins in Louisiana. The guitarist was born in 1936 on a plantation 160 kilometers from New Orleans.
He was just seven years old when he built his first guitar with two strings attached to a piece of wood and held together with his mother's hairpins.
In 1957, he went to Chicago and took part in numerous sessions for Chess Records alongside Howlin' Wolf and Muddy Waters. Known for his guitar style, he was subsequently voted one of the 25 best players of all time by Rolling Stone magazine.
