Dear Reader,
 
276 children from 31 countries took part in our piano competition this year, displaying remarkable musicality and passion. There were four different age groups: The younger participants performed a movement from a sonata by Muzio Clementi, while the older ones played the first movement of a Mozart sonata. All entries were submitted via YouTube video. The prize-winners have now been selected, and you can watch their performances here.

The Four Serious Songs, op. 121, was to be the last work Brahms published before his death. These songs are closely linked to the death of his beloved friend Clara Schumann in May 1896. When the composer himself died shortly thereafter, in April 1897, the Four Songs were transformed into his own musical memorial.
