2022 Final Results

An audience prize was not offered this year. The reference to the prize in the concert programme was in error. Our apologies for this. As a result of family illness Siva Oke had to withdraw from the jury at short notice and was not able to attend the final. Consequently she was unable to offer the opportunity of a recording for Somm Recordings to any of the finalists.

First Prize:  Tyler Hay

Second Prize:  Luke Jones

Third  Prize:  Maxim Kinasov

2022 Semi Final Results

After listening to an excellent day of music the judges reached a decision. The players in the final on 24th November and the concerto they will play are as follows:

Luke Jones : Beethoven Concerto No 3

Maxim Kinasov  :  Liszt Concerto No 1
