Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy Prize

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Mendelssohn Scholarship, awarded by the Prussian State from 1879 to 1936, was revived in 1963 by the Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation. The Foundation awards the Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy Prize once a year per competition opened to particularly talented students at one of the 23 recognised music academies in Germany.

The award is decided in a competition with two annually changing competition subjects, in which each university may nominate only one candidate or ensemble for each subject. Ensembles consisting of students from different universities may also be nominated (the universities participating in the mixed ensembles agree on which university will nominate this ensemble).

The Rektorenkonferenz der deutschen Musikhochschulen [de] appoints the members of the juries. For each competition subject, they are composed of a rector as chairman, four specialist jurors and two jurors from other disciplines.
