Walter Furrer Prize 2025
Written in Paris after his years of study with Nadia Boulanger (1887–1979), the Piano Variations (1926) by the German-born Swiss composer Walter Furrer (1902–1978) reflects cultivated European musical traditions and, in our opinion, represents a milestone for future generations of musicians to discover. The world premiere took place in January 2025, performed by Ilya Shmukler, winner of the Concours Géza Anda 2024.
