Considering Bartok thought competitions were appropriate only for horses, this is an insult to his memory. Shame on them for using his name!
Congratulations and a good prize.
I was playing Bartok on piano today but definitely wouldn’t get 30,000€.
Someone might give me 3€ to stop playing and go away …
That’s a lot of Adams among the winners.
Indeed, three Adams among the first two prizes! From then on it starts to Peter out.
Any relation to the pianist Balasz Szokolay?
Adam good result, by the look of it.
