Claude Schauerte, President
Claude Schauerte grew up in Klosters and has been running his family’s local watch and jewellery business in the second generation since 2009. He has strong roots in the village of Klosters and loves the intact mountain world as well as the familiar, but also cosmopolitan village character.
For years, he has been committed to the tourism and cultural development of the alpine health resort. As a member of the newly founded tourism council, he is actively involved in shaping the future of the destination Klosters.
In 2010, Claude Schauerte, together with Geoff Richards, founded the now traditional and extremely popular Christmas concerts in Klosters and played a major role in organising and financing them. With the Philharmonia Orchestra from London, the Royal College of Music and the Lund Student Singers, they brought top-class classical music to Klosters. Subsequently, they founded the Klosters Music Festival, which now also enriches the cultural life of Klosters in summer.
