Description Description Beschreibung

The candidates of the Tibor Varga International Violin Competition 2021 will have to show rigour and combine the expressiveness necessary to their art with an irreproachable instrumental technique. Indeed, the competition is demanding and it is first of all in solo that the musicians will have to perform, during the first round. These bare-bones performances, without any pianistic or orchestral support, are particularly formidable, leaving the participants “without a net”. It will certainly be exciting for the audience to listen to the sound of each musician and to measure the artistic autonomy of each of them. It will be good, however, not to forget the degree of difficulty of such an exercise. The compulsory piece, of great richness, has been commissioned to Michel Petrossian by the Competition and will be premiered on this occasion – an elegant and stimulating way of reminding us of the importance of the contemporary repertoire in the maturation of an artist.

After this solitary stage, the second round will require a strong sense of communication, as it will confront the candidates with the exercise of the sonata with piano.
