Concours Géza Anda

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Concours Géza Anda is a triennial international piano competition that takes place every three years in Zürich, Switzerland. It was founded in memory of the late Hungarian pianist Géza Anda by his widow Hortense Anda-Bührle. The purpose of the competition is to discover and promote young pianists who will pass on the musical spirit of Géza Anda. The Géza Anda Foundation provides winners with free concert management for three years after the competition (up to 200 engagements).

Sergey Koudriakov was the winner of the 10th Concours in 2006. The next Concours will be held in June 2009.
