I International Svyatoslav Knushevitsky Cello Competition

The first International Cello Competition named after Svyatoslav Knushevitsky (1907-1963) will be held from April 25 to May 2 in Saratov, the homeland of the famous musician. Its organizers spoke about this today at a press conference.

According to People's Artist of Russia, Vice-Rector of the Moscow Conservatory Alexander Bonduryansky, the competition was created in order to preserve the memory of the outstanding Russian cellist, who devoted his entire life to serving national culture, raising a number of wonderful musicians in his class.

“Another goal of the show is to popularize cello performing culture in Russian regions, identify new talented young musicians, instill in young people a good memory, a sense of respect and gratitude for individuals who have increased the glory of the great Russian culture,” added the director of the forum, a student of Svyatoslav Nikolaevich Sergei Usanov.

The competition, the organizing committee of which is headed by the rector of the Moscow Conservatory. P.I. Tchaikovsky Alexander Sokolov, is held in two age categories - the younger group (juniors) up to 18 years old and the senior group (seniors) from 18 to 26 years old. Auditions will take place in the Big and Small Halls of the Saratov State Conservatory named after Sobinov, whose centenary is celebrated this year. According to the chairman of the jury of the review, People's Artist of Russia Igor Gavrysh, “there were great doubts about the number of participants.” “We expected 40 people, but it turned out to be a record number of 53. We decided to give the opportunity to show their talent to everyone who sent an application to participate. For the sake of Svyatoslav Knushevitsky,” he noted, adding that “the geography of the competition is amazing, Russia is surprisingly widely represented.” Thus, musicians from Moscow, St. Petersburg, Nizhny Novgorod, Kazan, Samara, Yakutsk, Ufa and other cities of the country will gather in Saratov.

The program is mainly composed of works that were part of Knushevitsky’s repertoire. The competition will be held in two rounds for the younger group and three rounds for the older group. The final stage will be accompanied by the symphony orchestra of the Saratov Philharmonic named after Schnittke. The laureates of the upcoming show will have the opportunity to perform in Russia and other countries of the world during the 2012-2013 concert season.

As part of the competition, members of the jury - famous musicians from Russia, near and far abroad - will give concerts, as well as master classes. And in the foyer of the conservatory it is planned to open an exhibition dedicated to the life and work of Svyatoslav Knushevitsky.

The famous solo cellist, head of the cello and double bass department of the Moscow Conservatory, professor, laureate of the USSR State Prize, Honored Artist and People's Artist of the RSFSR Svyatoslav Knushevitsky was born in the city of Petrovsk, Saratov region. He graduated from the Moscow Conservatory, class of Professor Kozolupov. Thanks to the maestro’s work as a soloist, the cello took a place on the concert stage equal to the piano and violin. For a long time he performed as part of a unique trio with brilliant musicians Lev Oborin and David Oistrakh. Together they successfully toured in many countries around the world.
