VIOLIN
WORKSHOP is a unique competition offered to violin students in music
schools all over Slovakia – unique because it offers workshops and
concerts together with former competition winners. The fifteen-year
history of VIOLIN WORKSHOP has produced some of the most recognized
Slovak violinists: Dalibor Karvay (winner of the first competition),
Alexej Rosik, Daniel Turcina and Karol Danis. Guarantor of the
competition since 1993 has been the excellent soloist and pedagogue
Jindrich Pazdera, who each year brings his personality to performances
in the laureates concert arranged by the SKO Zilina. His close
relationship with Zilina and his teachers in the Zilina Conservatory
has predetermined this connection. And since the Arts School of Zilina
has not been named for its founder, Ladislav Arvay, VIOLIN WORKSHOP
wishes to commemorate and celebrate his work in the musical history of
Zilina.
Tickets: 4 Euros
