WE ARE EXCITED TO PRESENT THE RESULTS OF THE NORTH INTERNATIONAL MUSIC COMPETITION


 

We’ve had a long and inspiring process judging these talented musicians. As it is our first year holding this competition, we are very excited that we received submissions from 41 different countries. We are publishing the top three in each category, where there is a blank space, no candidate qualified for the spot.

The competition has been expanding and we have been working hard on establishing partnerships around the world that can benefit our contestants.

 


The First Grand Prize Winner Of The North International Music Competition:

Raphaël Jouan – Cello

We will sponsor him with a reduced cost to the Aurora Music Masterclasses in Sweden. Aurora Music has had the great privilege to work with more than 200 of the world’s leading musicians, artists, professors and soloists.
