Conductor: the four conductors advancing to the finals
The exceptionally intense ten days of the Solti International Conducting Competition will conclude with a gala concert led by the conductors who made it to the final round, where, in addition to the announcement of the results, the finalists will each delight the audience with a work they have already conducted in the final. Then, after all the excitement of the previous rounds, the audience will finally find out who, according to the decision of the international professional jury led by Pinchas Steinberg, has been declared the most outstanding conductor in this competition named after one of the greatest maestros of the 20th century. This victory will constitute an enormous honour for the winner, especially considering that the original field comprised a total of nearly 400 applicants from 61 countries. During the evening, in addition to the overall winner, we will also learn who won the audience prize and the special awards granted by various professional organisations.
