Revision as of 05:48, 3 October 2010
The Alois Kottmann Award is an international award for classical play of the violin with an individual canto style. It honours outstanding international violinists. The competition takes place annually in May and/or June during International Days of Music Hesse Main-Taunus Hofheim in Hofheim am Taunus, Hesse, Germany.[1][2] After the competition the cultural award will be handed over on a separate date through the Lord Mayor of the city of Frankfurt am Main, Dr. h. c. Petra Roth, in prestigious [[::de:Alten Limpurg|Limpurg Hall]] of the historic city hall Römer.
History
The Alois Kottmann Award was founded and donated in 2001. It is named after its founder and benefactor, a German violinist and university professor Alois Kottmann.[3]
During the first years of the competition only one participant was awarded whereas special premiums were offered to honour further special talents or performances. This changed in 2005 as then two participants were awarded. In the years 2006 and 2007 Special Appreciation was introduced along the award and the special premiums. In addition the Bach Award of the city of Hofheim am Taunus was handed over in 2007. In 2010 the first and second places of the award was created, along with the special premiums. In addition to it, the title Laudatory Appreciation was newly introduced.
In 2006 the Bach Award of the city of Hofheim am Taunus was handed over to Sabrina-Vivian Höpcker (Germany), a special premium was given to Rebecca Martin (Germany), the title Special Appreciation was won by Célia Schann (France).
Aim
The cultural award is meant to aid and encourage the Frankfurt-based tradition of Carl Flesch with its most prominent exponents Alma Moodie and Max Rostal. The jury will place special emphasis on classical discipline, on an artistic and stilistic penetration of the performed works as well as a high canto of tune which signifies and characterises the personality of the artist.[4][5]
"Outstanding violinists can be recognized by their tone, but with the young ones this is often not possible anymore. What is heard from them is performed speciously but without personality. The violin was created because man is able to sing also with it."
Professor h. c. Alois Kottmann (translated from German)[6]
Rewards
The reward of the award is 3,000 Euro. In addition to it, a silver medal of the award and certificates will be submitted.
Eligibility Requirements
The competition is open for violinists internationally. There is no age restriction. During the competition musical pieces are required to perform which are published one year in advance and will change annually. Memorised play is neither preconditioned nor rated specially. Closing date for applications is in April.[7]
Jury
The members of the judging panel are Agnes Giebel (singer), university professor Richard Rudolf Klein (compositor), university professor Alois Kottmann (violin, benefactor and patron of the award), Boris Kottmann (violin), and Margit Neubauer (singer).
