The first Hanseatic Chamber Music Competition, organized jointly for the first time by the conservatories of Hamburg, Lübeck, and Rostock in Rostock, was a resounding success.

The Helia Quartet from Prof. Abel Tomàs Realp’s chamber music class—featuring Hemma Wenzler, Adelina Singer, Zeynep Sertoglu, and Hannah Bauer—shared second prize, worth €1,400 each, with the Teva Quartet from the Rostock University of Music and Drama.

The Hanseatic Chamber Music Competition succeeds the former “HMT Music Prize” and aims to further intensify chamber music collaboration among the three conservatories in northern Germany. In addition to the competition, the focus is particularly on artistic exchange, collaboration among the three conservatories, and the promotion of outstanding ensembles. In the future, the competition is to take place annually and will be hosted in rotation by one of the three conservatories.

The HfMT Hamburg extends its warmest congratulations to all the winners on their success!!
