Le Gala de Jason Brokerss

Status Quo's album "Pictures" (released in November 2008) celebrated 40 years of Status Quo filling the UK charts with hit after hit. The album was an instant success, charting at No.8 and selling over a quarter of a million copies in the UK alone. In July 2009 the Pictures live tour landed at Montreux in Switzerland as part of the world famous festival.

Vincent Kucholl and Vincent Veillon are back on stage with "Le Fric", a new show that laughs at money and the economy. Money is always a problem. Whether we have enough, too much, too little or not at all. Even if we find it vulgar, it directs the desires, needs, relationships, the position of each in society. Its possession or not classifies men and women and defines their room for maneuver, the freedom to which they can aspire, the power which they have.

Phil Collins has made a number of appearances at Montreux over the years as a solo artist, with his big band or as a guest performer with the likes of Eric Clapton and Quincy Jones. In this performance filmed at the 2004 festival, he performs all of his best known hits from his solo career. Bonus footage of a performance by the Phil Collins Big Band at Montreux from 1996 is also included. This is the first time any of Phil's big band material has been made available and features Tony Bennett on a track. This combination of all his classic songs coupled with rare big band material shows the breadth of musical genres Phil has covered in his career and makes a perfect celebration of Phil's association with Montreux.

Simply Red are one of the most successful British acts of all time with global album sales in excess of 50 million. Both the band and Mick Hucknall as a solo artist have been frequent visitors to Montreux across their 25 year career. This concert, filmed on July 15th 2003, was part of the tour in support of their multi-platinum album Home. It features several tracks from that album, including many of their biggest hits and best loved album tracks. It s a typically polished and sparkling Simply Red performance with Mick Hucknall in excellent voice and the band in fine form

The Fête des Vignerons is opening its doors to Swiss comedians and searching for that rare gem for its 2019 edition. While artists from the new generation are rushing to audition, Marie-Thérèse Porchet doesn't understand why she should stoop to auditioning, as she is so certain that she alone embodies the spirit of the legendary Vevey festival. Will she achieve her goal despite stiff competition?

The crisis is the crisis, it's because of the crisis! Marie-Thérèse can't take the crisis anymore! Until one day she realizes that a show is a business like any other, and she decides, like some unscrupulous employers, to use the crisis to increase her profits. She plans to reduce the number of technicians, have her costumes made in Eastern Europe, lay off some musicians and replace them with cheaper ones, or even recorded tracks. Inevitably, a serious labor dispute breaks out in the middle of the show between Madame Porchet and her staff, who decide to go on strike and hold their boss hostage! Marie-Thérèse must therefore face all the problems of a business leader and, through difficult negotiations, she will try everything to get the show to its conclusion.

She's back in all her glory, much to our delight. Marie-Thérèse Porchet dances, sings, and talks about the highlights of 2023. She is accompanied by the troupe from La Revue de Lausanne, Yann Lambiel, FORMA, and Nathanael Rochat. Behind-the-scenes glimpses of RTS add spice to this festive show. She might not recognize anyone! Her last appearance on an RTS New Year's Eve show was in 2012.
