1º Concurso Internacional de Violín Buenos Aires 2010
It is with the purpose of encouraging and stimulating the study of music amongst the young, creating a dynamic cultural interchange between violinists from all over the world and to celebrate in Argentina a musical contest of worldwide renown that we open a new call to the Second International Violin Competition Buenos Aires 2012, organized by the Amijai Community and presented by the YPF Foundation. An ambitious proposition from both institutions, supported by Mecenazgo de Buenos Aires, the Competition is honoured by a Jury made up of artists of different nationalities and international recognition, presided by Maestro Shlomo Mintz.
