Carl Flesch International Violin Competition

Last updated

The Carl Flesch International Violin Competition (also known as the International Competition for Violinists "Carl Flesch" and the City of London International Competition for Violin and Viola (Carl Flesch Medal)) was an international music competition for violinists, and later viola players, held between 1945 and 1992 in London. [1] [2] [3] [4] Founded in honour of the Hungarian violinist Carl Flesch, it was originally organised by the Guildhall School of Music and Drama and after 1968 formed part of the City of London Festival. Particularly in the City of London Festival era, it was regarded as among the "most prestigious" competitions for string players, [3] and "one of the most important testing grounds for aspiring soloists up to the age of 32." [4]

History

The competition was founded in 1945 in honour of the Hungarian violinist Carl Flesch (1873–1944), who was particularly noted as a violin teacher. [1] [2] It was founded in the form of the "Flesch Medal" by Max Rostal and Edric Cundell of the Guildhall School of Music and Drama; [4] Rostal had been a pupil of Flesch. [5] Flesch's son, Carl F. Flesch, was also instrumental in the competition's foundation, [2] and commissioned a commemorative medal portraying his father from Benno Elkan to be presented to the winners. [6] [7] The early competitions were organised by the Guildhall School. [4] [8] Initially they were held annually in October, around the date of Flesch's birthday. From the start they were open to international entrants, with an age cut-off of thirty years. In addition to the medal, the original prize included a concert as a soloist with the London Philharmonic Orchestra. [8] The first competition was won by the British violinist Raymond Cohen; [4] his win was said to have "launched him on to the world stage". [9]

At that date there were relatively few international music competitions; a slightly earlier violin competition is the French Marguerite Long–Jacques Thibaud Competition, which was founded in 1943 but did not attract international competitors until 1946. After the Second World War, the number of competitions increased rapidly. [10] In 1949, the Carl Flesch competition was described by The Musical Times as "the premier international award for violinists under thirty years of age". [11] By 1956, three British orchestras offered solo concerts to the winners: the London Philharmonic, Liverpool Philharmonic and City of Birmingham Orchestra. [12] By the 1960s the final was held at the Wigmore Hall in November. [13]

In 1968, the Carl Flesch competition was one of three international music competitions hosted in England, with a global total of sixteen competitions judging solely instrumentalists. [14] Egon Kraus, in a 1968 review of international music competitions, commented that English violinists had been awarded eight of twelve prizes in the competition in 1956–66, including four overall winners, while considering all competitions Russian violinists performed much better. He noted that a similar skew towards the home nationality was apparent in the results of some other competitions. [14]

In 1968, the competition joined the City of London Festival, an arts festival held in July, and the frequency changed to every two years. [4] By then, the age limit had been raised to thirty-two years. In addition to the Carl Flesch Medal, a first prize of £1000 was offered, with a second prize of £750, third prize of £500 and fourth prize of £250. [15] [16] Yfrah Neaman, a pupil of both Flesch and Rostal, [5] was the director and chair from 1968; he increased the competition's standing by recruiting Yehudi Menuhin and others to serve on the jury. [3] It became a member of the World Federation of International Music Competitions in 1969. [17] In 1970 the remit broadened to include viola players, [1] [4] with the first overall violist winner being Csaba Erdélyi in 1972. [18] The formal title became the City of London International Competition for Violin and Viola (Carl Flesch Medal). According to Grove 's, it was then "one of the most important testing grounds for aspiring soloists up to the age of 32." [4] The music journalist Norman Lebrecht described it in 2002 as "one of the toughest violin contests". [19]

From the 1970s specially composed test pieces were employed, which derived from a composers' competition organised by the Society for the Promotion of New Music; these include Michael Blake Watkins' The Wings of Night, Edward McGuire's Rant, Helen Roe's Notes towards a Definition and Michael Finnissy's Enek. [20] [21] [22] [23] An audience award began in 1972, [18] and the total prize money increased during the 1970s and 1980s; in 1976, the first prize was worth £1250, with a second prize of £1000, third prize of £750, and three further prizes totalling £800. [24] In 1988 and 1990, the winner received £5000 and the other awards (in 1990) came to £10,000. A gold-mounted bow was also awarded to the winner. [25] [26] [27] In the 1980s and 1990s the finals were held in the Barbican Hall, with six finalists each performing a classical and a romantic or 20th-century concerto over several days in some years. [26] [27] [28]

In 1992, the City of London ceased to fund the competition. [2] Flesch tried unsuccessfully for many years to gather financial support to resurrect it, [2] but the final competition was held that year. [3] [4] The loss of the Carl Flesch competition was described in 2003 by Malcolm Layfield, director of the strings department at the Royal Northern College of Music, as "a gap in the UK's contribution". [29] It is not related to the competition in Hungary first held in 1985 under the title National Carl Flesch Violin Competition, and later as the Carl Flesh International Violin Competition. [30]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Anthony Payne</span> English composer, critic and musicologist (1936–2021)

Anthony Edward Payne was an English composer, music critic and musicologist. He is best known for his acclaimed completion of Edward Elgar's third symphony, which subsequently gained wide acceptance into Elgar's oeuvre. Apart from opera, his own works include representatives of most traditional genres, and although he made substantial contributions to orchestral and choral repertoire, he is particularly noted for his chamber music. Many of these chamber works were written for his wife, the soprano Jane Manning, and the new music ensemble Jane's Minstrels, which he founded with Manning in 1988. Initially an unrelenting proponent of modernist music, by the 1980s his compositions had embraced aspects of the late romanticism of England, described by his colleague Susan Bradshaw as "modernized nostalgia". His mature style is thus characterised by a highly individualised combination of modernism and English romanticism, as well as numerology, wide-spaced harmonies, specific intervallic characterisations, and the frequent alternation between strict and fluid rhythmic frameworks.

Her recording of the two Prokofiev violin concertos received a Grand Prix du Disque from the French Académie Charles Cros.
