We were overwhelmed with the original ideas, creativity and number of submissions for the 5th round of the Ruzickova Composition Competition this year!
Pieces came from all over the world and over 50 composers participated in 2024 edition of the competition.

Due to the incredibly high standard of this year’s competition we awarded not 5, but 6 prizes to our wonderful composers.

​

The Ruzickova Composition Competition 2024 judging panel is honoured to announce that the following pieces won the Viktor Kalabis Prize (and therefore will be recorded later this year and released by First Hand Records) and Prima la musica publishing prize.
