At this concert, entitled Young Soloists, we will meet some of the brightest future stars of Icelandic music. The concert is a true harvest festival, where the winners of the Iceland Symphony Orchestra and Iceland Academy of the Arts soloist and solo singing competition take the stage with the orchestra. The atmosphere at these concerts is always unique and the anticipation is palpable when young musicians are given the opportunity to perform with the Iceland Symphony Orchestra for the first time, on the country's most impressive concert stage in Eldborg.
Swiss conductor Baldur Brönnimann, who is the principal conductor and artistic director of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and the Conservatory of Galicia in Spain. He places great emphasis on educational work and regularly works with young people; he holds master classes and works with youth orchestras around the world.
The soloist competition will take place in early 2026 and the names of the winners will be published on the orchestra's website when the results are available.
