Due to copyright reasons we cannot offer the compulsory Cello piece – the Toccata from the Sonata for Violoncello and Piano, op.6 by Johannes Kropfitsch – directly for download.

If you need a copy of the compulsory piece “toccata” by Johannes Kropfitsch, please just send an e-mail to info@brahmscompetition.org, and we will send you one for free.

 

We are planning to hold the first two rounds of this year’s voice competition at the Schlosshotel Velden.

Velden can be reached by train in a few minutes from Pörtschach. Nevertheless, you might want to consider this in your travel plans.

Accordingly, you can also look for accommodation in Velden. You can reach the Velden tourist information office at: info@velden.at, Tel. +43 4274 38288

Austria´s Minister of Health has announced a step by step relief with regard to accumulations of people, the governmental decree of which will be out by May 29^th. We were very pleased to learn that, as of August 1^st, crowds of people not exceeding the number of 500 will be allowed.

Encouraged by this announcement we are determined to carry the Competition through, provided

• conditions of entering and leaving the respective countries will be undisputed by then and
• we are spared a new corona wave. 

Timelines, precautionary warnings:

 – We shall open our registration gate on June 1^st.^.

 – Registration formalities and payment are expected to be in by July 15^th.

 – Should, on account of an unforeseen event, we would have to cancel the competition the registration fee will be refunded.

 – Orchestra accompaniment in the finals is also still intended. Should, however, an unexpected situation emerge we kindly ask for your understanding that they would have to be carried out with piano.

– We are very much looking forward to welcoming you at Poertschach in the first week of September and do apologize in advance if corona – in whatever form – should win and our competition would have to go up in smoke.

Der 27. Johannes Brahms Wettbewerb findet in den Sparten Violine, Viola, Cello und Lied statt. Mögliche Anpassungen des Programms im Vergleich zu den Vorjahren werden am Beginn des Jahres 2020 bekannt gegeben.
