General Manager for Switzerland Clement Dumortier said of the evening: “This unusual event was really an unforgettable one. The alliance of classical music and jazz, played at the highest level by brilliant musicians, gave a magic atmosphere to the evening. A friendly audience in a splendid environment, as is customary with Swiss Global, was listening with enthusiasm to amazing performances. The fascinating talent of the flutist Sebastian Jacot, from Geneva, a SGAF laureate, together with the poetic interpretation of the gifted guitarist, made this SGAF evening exceptional.“
