Dear young musicians, pedagogues,
parents and music lovers!
We’re glad to greet you on the website of the 3rd International Competition for Young Musicians Oskar Rieding.
The main goal of this competition is to support young musicians on their creative path. We also want to bring them closer to the music of the renowned composer and pedagogue Oskar Rieding, who worked and composed in Celje.
We kindly welcome you!
Regulation of competition
3. International Competition for Young Musicians Oskar Rieding is open for young musicians of all nationalities. The primary goal of the competition is to support young performers on their music journey.
There are two disciplines at the 2019 edition, which are:
VIOLIN and CHAMBER MUSIC.
The finals will take place in a wonderful
National Hal in Celje, Slovenia on 24 & 25 of May 2019.
Oskar Rieding chose this idyllic city for his home after he finished his orchestral career in the Budapest’s opera house and he wrote several important violin pieces there. These pieces still make part of repertoires for young violinists all around the world. It was in Celje where the composer wrote also one of his most performed pieces of the violin pedagogic repertoire – violin concert in H minor op. 35.
The organizing committee of the competition wants to offer to young musicians a new creative platform which will support the development of young talents. In this way, we will also symbolically revive the tradition of Oskar Rieding, a pedagogue, composer and performer of his own works.
We are looking forward to meeting you, and hearing your music! Welcome to Celje, city of Oskar Rieding.
Music is our companion throughout our life. It’s the beginning and the end. It’s a feeling and essence of many who chose it for their way of life.
