Vår oppgave

Trondheim International Chamber Music Competition is arranged every second year, alternately for string quartets and piano trios. The years between competitions there is Academy for the same kind of ensembles as in next year’s competition. This “springboard model” spans a three year period and is built up with the following progression:

1st year: Trondheim International Chamber Music Academy – TICA
2nd year: Trondheim International Chamber Music Competition – TICC
3rd year: Concert engagements as part of the competition prizes

The Competition & Academy focus especially on advanced student quartets and young professional quartets, and are open for chamber ensembles from all over the world.

The Competition and Academy is always arranged during Trondheim Chamber Music Festival. The competitors have free entry to the festival’s concerts. Read more about Trondheim Chamber Music Festival on www.kamfest.no.

Academy
The Academy offers a unique opportunity to its young musicians with a combination of:
- Master classes in the ensembles’ chosen repertoire
- Chamber music together with the instructors (including piano quartets/quintets, string quintets and other).

In addition to offering instruction of top international standard, one or more quartets will be selected by the instructors to directly qualify for the next year’s Trondheim International Chamber Music Competition (TICC).

Next Academy: 26 sept. - 2 oct. 2016, for String Quartets.

Competition
Trondheim International Chamber Music Competition is arranged every second year, alternately for string quartets and piano trios.

We hope that the competition can be an inspiration for young chamber music ensembles. With attractive prizes; both cash prizes and festival engagements, we also hope that the competition will act as a springboard to the ensembles careers.

Next Competition: 26 sept. - 1 oct. 2017, for String Quartets.

Welcome to Trondheim!
