Although the Bartók World Competition has not yet been running for several decades, it is already one of the most prestigious competitions in the world: hundreds of entries are received for each year, and every year the audience and jury hear world-class performances - not only in the final but also in the preliminaries thanks to the video preselection round. The preliminaries will be held in the Solti Hall of the Liszt Academy  

 

Semi-finals: 6 September 19:00; 7 September 15:00 and 19:00

Every two years, the competition organises an instrumental round, with a composition competition in the even years. In 2022, the  task was to write a violin-piano duo, the winning pieces became compulsory pieces for the current semi-final: all competitors must perform one of them. The semi-finals will also be held in the Solti Hall of the Liszt Academy.    

 

Orchestral finals: 9 September, 15:00 and 19:00. Tickets are available by clicking on the selected time.

Sebastian Heindl (organ)

Only a few of Johann Sebastian Bach’s works were printed during his lifetime: these included the four-part Clavier-Übung, the third part of which was written between 1735 and 1736 and published in 1739. It begins and ends with a musically related prelude and fugue, with 21 chorale preludes (from two to six voices) and 4 duets (two voices). The collection contains Bach’s most musically complex and technically demanding organ works. The series is also stylistically extremely diverse, featuring all the possible styles and idioms of the period, old and new, local and international. The collection is also an ideal concert programme, given that the series is based in part on the most succesful pieces of Bach’s own organ concerts. The ‘Great Lutheran Organ Mass’ by the former teacher of St. Thomas School, Leipzig will be performed by the organist Sebastian Heindl, a former student of the school.
