Internationaler Wettbewerb für junge Dirigent:innen von Besançon

In the organizer's words:
Founded in 1951, the International Competition for Young Conductors has quickly established itself as the most prestigious event of its kind. Classical, romantic and 20th century repertoire, contemporary music, opera, concerto... There is no more complete conducting competition in the world than that of Besançon. The Besançon competition is open to all artists under the age of 35 who wish to pursue a career as a professional conductor, regardless of their background, training or experience, as no prior diploma is required.
The competition in Besançon is the only conducting competition that does not make a pre-selection based on application documents, but through live auditions. More than 300 candidates have the opportunity to present themselves in Paris, Besançon, Montreal, Berlin and Seoul - accompanied by two pianists and evaluated by a jury of experts.
The auditions in Berlin are only open to a small audience, who have the opportunity to discover young talent.
