Competitions...

[ayahav]

Could anyone suggest competitions in Europe for me during 2004-2005? I live in Holland, but Germany, Belgium, France, Switzerland, Italy, Poland are all good. I will be 17 in June of 2004.

My repertoire includes:

Chopin's 1st Ballade, and the 10.3 and 10.4 Etudes,
Bach Prelude and Fugue (Book II f minor),
Beethoven's Sonata quasi una fantasia (op. 27 no.2 - i hate the name 'moonlight' - rellstab is an annoying person),
Schumann's 'des abends' and 'aufschwung' from Phantasiestuecken Op.12,
and H. Villa-Lobos 'A prole do bebe No.1'

... oh, and a bit of piazzolla....

any suggestion welcome...

(willing to learn new pieces for the competition....)

"Preludes Book I Le vent dans la plaine" - Debussy

The Scottish International Piano Competition is  in September 2004.If you do a google search you will find it's website.Scotland is only an hour's flight from Holland.
p.s. Where in Holland do you stay?Last year I stayed in Aalsmeer and Niewene(not sure about the spelling)

Aalsmeer..... .... I'm actually Israeli, and just live here in Holland, but it is a very nice place.... and it has given me the benefit of speaking so many languages... .I speak Hebrew from home, English from school, Dutch from the street, French from friends that I've made here and more languages that I have just picked up...... I seem to have a tendency towards languages.... Anyways.... thanks for the tip..
