Livestream: 6th Mauricio Kagel Composition Competition

Fanny Hensel-Hall

The 6th Mauricio Kagel Composition Competition, which has been dedicated to the creation of new piano literature for children and young people since 2010, is based at the Ludwig van Beethoven Department for Piano in Music Education at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna. The task is to write a piano work in a contemporary tonal language that is easily realizable for piano lessons and thus provides young players with adequate artistic access to the music of the present.

What is special about this competition is its high standard of transparency as well as its unusual format. The international jury, this time consisting of Annesley Black, Michael Jarrell, Isabel Mundry, Miroslav Srnka and Marco Stroppa, will publicly discuss the compositions nominated for the final round, which will be performed by students of the Ludwig van Beethoven Department of the mdw. The identities of the prize winners are only revealed after the jury's decision.
