Regional competition "Jugend musiziert"
Venue: Chemnitz Municipal Music School, Gerichtsstraße 1
Admission: free of charge
The competition for Chemnitz is one of 170 regional competitions and will take place for the 62nd time from 1 to 2 February in Chemnitz, Annaberg, Schloss Schwarzenberg and Flöha.
It is the most traditional competition for the promotion of young musicians in Germany. The categories and venues can be found in the overview timetable. The Chemnitz regional competition includes the city of Chemnitz, the district of Central Saxony and the Erzgebirgskreis.
Jugend musiziert is a measure of cultural youth education recognised by the Conference of Ministers of Education and Cultural Affairs and anchored in the Federal Children and Youth Plan and has been held annually since 1964. The three-stage competition, which first invites entries at regional level, then to the state competitions and finally to the national competition, has a stimulating function: it increases the popularity of musical education programmes, arouses curiosity and interest, and motivates children and young people to get involved with music, make music together and achieve particularly artistic achievements through hard work. Anyone can take part in Jugend musiziert.
