<strong>LONDON</strong> <strong>2016</strong>:<br />

PROGRAMME AND ACTIVITIES<br />

The events, concerts and programme for the Menuhin Competition<br />

and Centenary celebrations are being developed in close collaboration<br />

with our major partners. Consistent with previous Competitions,<br />

London <strong>2016</strong> will be innovative and of outstanding artistic excellence.<br />

Each competitor stays for the entire eleven-day event, forging friendships<br />

with fellow musicians and having an opportunity to perform, learn from<br />

each other and from the maestros of the Jury, and give master classes in<br />

schools and the wider community. This activity will also inspire the rich<br />

Outreach and Education Programme.<br />

A number of world-class violinists have already agreed to serve on the<br />

Centenary Jury – including Julia Fischer, Ray Chen, Henning Kraggerud and<br />

Tasmin Little – all under the chairmanship of American violinist Pamela<br />

Frank. The full Jury will be announced in early 2015.<br />
