StradivariCONTEST in Schwyz
In July, the Stradivari Quartet will be organizing a new competition in Central Switzerland, combined with the master class held for the first time last year.
From July 20 to 23, 2019, the StradivariQuartett invites you to attend the StradivariCLASS for the second time. What began a year ago with over 30 young musicians taking part will be extended next summer. The members of the renowned Stradivari Quartet Xiaoming Wang and Sebastian Bohren (violin), Lech Antonio Uszynski (viola), Maja Weber (violoncello) and Per Lundberg (piano) will teach masterclasses tailored to the needs of professional and amateur musicians. In addition to the instrumental subjects, solo singing can also be studied. This year, master classes for string chamber music ensembles will be offered for the first time. All master classes take place on the premises of the cantonal school "Kollegi Schwyz".
New: competition, student concerts and prizewinners' concert
Participants in the StradivariCLASS will have the opportunity to be judged by a jury on July 18 and 19, 2019 as part of the StradivariCONTEST. They can look forward to attractive prizes and the opportunity to perform at the prizewinners' concert at the Seehotel Waldstätterhof Brunnen. All participants in the StradivariCLASS will also receive a pass for 5 concerts at the StradivariFEST Gersau.
Following the StradivariCONTEST and the StradivariCLASS, the StradivariFEST will take place in Gersau and the surrounding area from July 24 to 28.
