Open call: Franz Schubert International Chamber Music Competition

The competition is an artistic event that brings together young musicians from all over the world to make and celebrate music together.

What is offered:

• Prize money totalling approximately €75 000 (about $82 000).
• Career consulting and supervision for first-place prize winners.
• Top-class jurors.
• Professional and comprehensive feedback offering constructive input for your professional path.
• The opportunity to listen to competitors.
• Valuable exchange of experience with musicians from all over the world.
• Workshops in the fields of career planning, self-management and music outreach.

This triennial chamber music competition is held in three categories: Lied (evaluated as a duo), Piano Trio and Piano Duo as a new category. An essential and internationally unique element of this competition is to compare contemporary music with the works of Schubert on an equal footing and equal value. The challenge of seriously dealing with modernity is an important incentive for young musicians to connect to today.

Artists can apply for Lied, Piano Trio and Piano Duo here, here and here, respectively, before 24 September.
