Carl Nielsen International Competition

About

Three years ago, the Carl Nielsen International Competition combined its violin, flute, and clarinet disciplines into one concurrent competition, and in 2022, the triple tradition continues! Join us in Odense, Denmark, for final-round action on medici.tv from this year's edition of one of the world's most prestigious competitions.

Out of the 72 candidates chosen for this year’s competition, only nine (three from each discipline) made it to the final! The winners of the 2022 Carl Nielsen International Competition are…
