The award ceremony is drawing noticeably closer. In 45-minute piano recitals, the two finalists each offer a focused insight into their artistic signature and interpretative depth.

Janoska Ensemble

Subject to change.

Virtuoso masterpieces for violin and piano are at the heart of this programme. The Janoska Ensemble presents works by Paganini, Kreisler, Liszt, Waxman, and other composers in its own distinctive voice — the Janoska Style.

Technical brilliance, improvisational freedom, and profound musicality merge in an interpretation that is spontaneous, passionate, and marked by the highest virtuosity.

Concert with interval.

The Janoska Ensemble meets the young soloists of the Kronberg Academy. This joint concert features both characteristic works by the Janoska Ensemble and classical pieces developed together with improvisational elements. The improvisations emerge in the ensemble’s signature Janoska Style.

The result is an inspiring dialogue between experience and the next generation, shaped by technical excellence, joy in performance, and a shared passion for music.
