Salle des Combins is the Verbier Festival’s main concert hall. It normally seats 1,419. Each row is on a separate tier, which guarantees an excellent view of the stage. Improvements to the soundproofing and heat insulation make this a very high-quality non-permanent venue. All of the Festival’s symphonic concerts, operas, large world music, jazz, dance events and some recitals are presented here.

Programme
Frédéric Chopin: Piano Concerto no. 2 in F minor, Op.21
Gustav Mahler: Symphony no. 6 in A minor "Tragic"
Overview
For a spectacular programme, exceptional artists: Mikhail Pletnev, one of the greatest Chopin interpreters of our time, performs the irresistible Second Concerto by Chopin, while the aesthete Gianandrea Noseda conducts the extraordinary Sixth Symphony by Mahler, renowned worldwide for its Dantean ambition.
A triumph at its premiere, Chopin’s Second Concerto is carried by a delicate lyricism supported by subtle, restrained rubato, dancing episodes reminiscent of the Waltz and the Mazurka in the Finale and, in addition, a slow movement conceived as a coded love letter to the singer Konstancja Gladkowska. Mikhail Pletnev is passionate about this repertoire and has even re-orchestrated the two concertos, so he knows this work like no one else, as it has yet to reveal all its secrets.
The first of the composer’s great symphonies, Mahler’s ‘Tragic’ Symphony is a grand affair. Impressive in its proportions (the Finale alone lasts as long as a Schumann symphony), it also uses a special hammer to represent the blows of fate, whose intensity is matched only by its symbolism. Mahler made no mistake: the year after the premiere, he was dismissed from his post at the Vienna Opera, his daughter died and he was diagnosed with heart disease. Rarely has a subtitle been carried with such intensity.
