Created in 1939, the Geneva Competition is one of the oldest and most prestigious international competitions on a par with those of Munich, Brussels and Prague. It showcases two disciplines every year. In 2010, the Japanese pianist Mami Hagiwara won the first prize in the piano category. This year is the turn of the voice.

A historic discipline in Geneva, the voice category has witnessed a large number of major artists, who have marked the post-war artistic scene: from Eva Stalder to José Van Dam, not forgetting Victoria De Los Angeles, Teresa Stich-Randall, Michelle Crider and Annette Dasch, Geneva is one of the most important stages in the singing world.
