Entries are now being accepted for the 2009 Gisborne International Music Competition and may be downloaded here or obtained from PO Box 423, Gisborne 4040, New Zealand.
We are pleased to announce the Jurors for the 2009 Competition, New Zealand Trio Cellist and past Gisborne International Music Competition finalist, Ashley Brown and Melbourne Symphony Orchestra Principal Oboist, Jeffrey Crellin. Both are musicians of the highest calibre and we are thrilled to have secured their services.
A feature of the Gisborne International Music Competition has always been the provision of some of New Zealand’s most experienced accompanists that are made available to all entrants. We are delighted therefore to have retained our same team of expert accompanists from last year, Rosemary Barnes, Sarah Watkins and Bruce Greenfield for this, the 21st running of the Competition.
Remember, if you would like to enter a work by a New Zealand composer but are having difficulty in sourcing pieces for your instrument, please contact SOUNZ, Centre for New Zealand Music
