The first edition of the International Piano and Violin Performance Contest brought together 144 participants. We are grateful that we have participants from all over Romania, from the Republic of Moldova, Lithuania, Mongolia, Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria, Kosovo, Italy and Portugal. We thank everyone and congratulate them for their participation and for the work they do every day to achieve performance in music.
The youngest Participants at the International Piano and Violin Contest
Instead of other words and statistics, we present to you what Anne Sophie Dogaru (5 years old) wrote to us: ”Thank you for the opportunity to participate at this contest. I play piano with all my heart and I hope to share the happiness that I feel when I read a new score or when my interpretation gets better. I am grateful to my beloved piano teacher, as well.”

We also would like to introduce to you the youngest violin competitor – Beatrice Ambra (5 years old). She started studying violin for less than a year, with her parents Prof. Antonio Ambra and Alexandra Butnaru. She has already performed in concerts as soloist or as member of young chamber music ensembles. She loves classical music and her favorite violinist is Itzhak Perlman.

We wish all the participants success and a lot of love for music, so that we can be proud that we found out about them on the beautiful occasion of the International Piano and Violin Performance Contest of the Festival 4 Arts (Festivalul de Arte).
