Vincent Wins Beethoven Junior Intercollegiate Piano Competition

Wednesday 23 March 2016

RCMJD pianist Vincent Ling has won the Beethoven Junior Intercollegiate Piano Competition.

The competition offers young pianists at junior level a fantastic opportunity to perform works from the Beethoven sonata repertoire in front of a distinguished jury.

Malcolm Miller praised Vincent’s performance for ‘maturity and polish that belied his years. He produced a rich resonance, and radiated an attractive and relaxed sonority.’

Vincent, 15, studies with Natasa Lipovšek at RCMJD. In addition to a cash award, he was presented with a copy of the two volume Schnabel Edition of Beethoven’s piano sonatas.
