Montreux Jazz Festival. Tribute to Quincy Jones For over thirty years, he made this Swiss stage his second home, thanks to his deep friendship with founder Claude Nobs. Serving as artistic director and a steadfast pillar of the festival since 1991, "Q" broke down genre boundaries and left his mark on generations of artists with his unique and generous vision. His passing leaves the music world bereft, but his avant-garde spirit will forever resonate on the shores of Lake Geneva.
