Finalists Announced at 2022 Carl Nielsen International Violin Competition

 

The 2022 finalists are:

  • Hans Christian Aavik

  • Eun Che Kim

  • Bohdan Luts

 

The Pre-Final and Final Rounds of this year's violin competition will be streamed LIVE here on The Violin Channel from April 8-10.

For the Pre-Final Round, each finalist is required to perform a major Romantic or 20th Century Violin Concerto with conductor Nikolaj Szeps-Znaider and the Copenhagen Philharmonic. 

In the Final Round of this year’s competition, the same three candidates from the Pre-Final Stage will perform Carl Nielsen’s Violin Concerto Op. 33 with conductor Daniela Musca and the Odense Symphony Orchestra. 

The first prize winner will receive €12,000, an Ulf Eriksson and Duncan Duncan Emck violin bow, a CD recording with the Odense Symphony on the Orchid Classics label, plus a number of solo engagements with top Nordic orchestras.

In addition to the violin, flute and clarinet competitions, the 2022 event will also include Expansiva!, a new in-person program designed to offer participants an off-stage platform to create connections with other musicians and music industry experts — including The Violin Channel's Founder & CEO, Geoffrey John Davies.

The 2022 violin jury comprises Noah Bendix-Balgley (Head Juror), Eugene Tichindeleanu, Albena Danialova, Tasmin Little, Judith Van Eeckhout, Mark Williams, and Baiba Skride.

Previous Carl Nielsen International Violin Competition major prize winners include Kathleen Winkler, Joji Hattori, Nikolaj Znaider, Jennifer Koh, Pekka Kuusisto, Adele Anthony, Hrachya Avanesyan — and VC Artists Josef Spacek, Ji Won Song, Luke Hsu, and Johan Dalene.
