This concert marks the pinnacle of two weeks of intensive work under the expert guidance of Jaap van Zweden, Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla and Johannes Schlaefli, supported by the world-class Gstaad Festival Orchestra. For each participant, it is a defining moment, especially with the prestigious Neeme Järvi Prize at stake – a reward that promises future engagements with leading Swiss and international orchestras. The competition is sure to be fierce, as each conductor strives to convince the jury that their countless hours of training have truly paid off. If you loved the diverse talents of the conductors and the vibrant range of musical interpretations, make sure to catch this special performance two days later – with the Gstaad Festival Orchestra led by the one and only Jaap van Zweden!
