Acclaim

Aus 1017 Teilnehmerinnen und Teilnehmern eine handvoll Solisten für das Preisträgerkonzert auszuwählen scheint unmöglich. Zwischen-Stationen für die Jury waren die „Akademiekonzerte“. So hart es klingt - auch in diesem Sommer endete die Sommerakademie mit dem Konzert der „Besten der Besten“
