We know the Finalists in TROMBON!
We are glad to announce that the jury has selected the names of the finalists of the TROMBONE category!
ROUND II was finished by 6 PM today. In the Majakovskij Hall, located in the National House in Vinohrady, we had the chance to hear wonderful solo performances by thirteen young and promising trombonists, who competed for a place in the FINALS. They were accompanied by pianists Daniel Wiesner and Jana Ryšánková.
The audience also had the opportunity to listen to the composition Prague Bagatelle by Jan Kučera, specially commissioned for the IMC Prague Spring 2023.
All the performances were excellent, however, the possibility of qualifying for the FINALS is only reserved for the top 3 musicians. After a long discussion, the jury agreed on the following finalists:
Gonçalo Nova, Portugal
Juhyeon Seo, Republic of Korea
Tim Ouwejan, Netherlands
The jury has also decided to award Honorary Mentions to two contestants:
Botond Drahos, Hungary
Jarosław Meisner, Poland
