The project aims to preserve and promote the festival’s heritage, with the goal of rekindling younger generations’ interest in classical music.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nA pioneer since 1994, the Verbier Festival is the first festival in the world to have recorded all of its concerts. This exceptional collection now includes 3,000 hours of audio recordings, more than 1,000 hours of video, 12,000 historical photographs, archival documents, and a collection of annotated sheet music. It serves as a unique resource for research, innovation, and cultural transmission. As part of this collaboration, EPFL students are invited—upon registration and following a selection process—to participate in a master class during which they will draw on part of this heritage to create a musical work, which they will then present to an audience and a jury.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n---<br>\r\n<strong>Partners: </strong>Claude Latour Foundation, Verbier Festival, CHC Platform—Cultural Heritage &amp; Conservation at EPFL, UNIL, Montreux Jazz Café, NAGRA <br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>&gt;&gt;&gt; Free admission; <a href=\"http://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/z8TTfURvwX\">aperitif available with registration</a></strong><br>\r\n \r\n<figure class=\"image\"><a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/fr/les-culturelles/les-culturelles-dautomne-2026/\"><img alt=\"Programme complet des Culturelles\" height=\"182\" src=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/LES_CULTURELLES_1920x1080_programme_complet.png\" width=\"600\"></a>\r\n\r\n<figcaption>© 2026 EPFL, Laura Persat</figcaption>\r\n</figure>","image_description":"","creation_date":"2026-09-03T14:13:52","last_modification_date":"2026-09-10T14:13:58","link_label":"Inscription à l'apéritif","link_url":"http://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/z8TTfURvwX","canceled":"False","cancel_reason":"","place_and_room":"Montreux Jazz Café","url_place_and_room":"https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==ART%20C0%20100","url_online_room":"","spoken_languages":["https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/1/?format=json","https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=json"],"speaker":"<a href=\"https://people.epfl.ch/alain.dufaux\">Alain Dufaux</a>, directeur de la Plateforme EPFL CHC - Cultural Heritage &amp; Conservation ; <a href=\"https://applicationspub.unil.ch/interpub/noauth/php/Un/UnPers.php?PerNum=64542&amp;LanCode=37\">Constance Frei</a>, musicologue, professeure UNIL/EPFL ; <a href=\"https://hem.hesge.ch/la-hem/alumniae/portrait-alumniae/charlotte-graber-musicologue-bibliothecaire\">Charlotte Graber</a>, musicologue HEM, Genève ; <a href=\"https://verbierfestival.com/musician/mcholm-stephen/\">Stephen McHolm</a>, directeur de la Verbier Festival Academy ","organizer":"<a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/fr/les-culturelles/\">Festival Les Culturelles</a> (Pôle Culture VPI)","contact":"<a href=\"https://people.epfl.ch/veronique.mauron\">Véronique Mauron Layaz</a>","is_internal":"False","theme":"","vulgarization":{"id":1,"fr_label":"Tout public","en_label":"General public"},"registration":{"id":3,"fr_label":"Entrée libre","en_label":"Free"},"keywords":"","file":null,"icalendar_url":"https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/121682/","category":{"id":9,"code":"MANIF","fr_label":"Événements festifs et culturels","en_label":"Cultural events","activated":true},"academic_calendar_category":null,"domains":[],"mementos":["https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=json","https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/2/?format=json","https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/4/?format=json","https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=json","https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=json","https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=json","https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/21/?format=json","https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/22/?format=json","https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/79/?format=json","https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/145/?format=json"]},{"id":72507,"title":"Development of Aptamer-Functionalized Graphene Devices for Biosensing of Stress Biomarkers","slug":"development-of-aptamer-functionalized-graphene-d-2","event_url":"https://memento.epfl.ch/event/development-of-aptamer-functionalized-graphene-d-2","visual_url":"https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33753/200x112.jpg","visual_large_url":"https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33753/720x405.jpg","visual_maxsize_url":"https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33753/max-size.jpg","lang":"en","start_date":"2026-10-15","end_date":"2026-10-15","start_time":"17:30:00","end_time":null,"description":"<p>Thesis Director: Prof. M.
