The Hillary Chamber Music Competition
The Music Department’s annual Chamber Music Competition is always one of the high points of the year and on Friday 20th October the $2000 prize was carried off by violinist Euna-Jenny Song and pianist Tania Park. And it was a double victory – competing against works by such classic names as Telemann, Franck and Schumann, the winning duo chose a New Zealand work, Split the Lark, by Auckland composer Eve de Castro-Robinson.
The prize is made possible thanks to the continued support of The Sir Edmund Hillary Scholarship Programme.
