Revolution in competitionland! After 79 editions, the world-renowned Queen Elisabeth Competition is adding cello to its piano, violin and song disciplines. With mainly works by Dvorak, Elgar and Schumann, the cello repertoire is neither as big nor as popular as that of the piano or violin. The perfect chance then to revive forgotten gems and to have new works written. Who the laureates will be and what they will play we naturally can’t yet say. But this year they will undoubtedly, once again, touch the heart of many a music lover. Some finalists quickly vanish from view, others soar. Whatever the case this year, the winner will be writing a piece of history as the very first laureate of a new chapter in the competition!
