The International Guitar Competition & Festival Berlin, is an international competition for classical guitarists from around the world. Since 2006, the competition has taken place every two years in Germany's capital. Participants have come from a variety of countries, including Austria, Belgium, Chile, China, Colombia, Denmark, Ireland, Italy, New Zealand, Peru, Poland, Russia, Spain, Vietnam, South Korea, Belarus, Ukraine, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Mexico. The International Guitar Competition & Festival Berlin has been co-organized by the Berlin Guitar Association and the Berlin-Gesundbrunnen Musikschule since 2002.
"I think the competition is getting attention not only in Berlin and Germany, but also because there is always press coverage of this competition," said Mr. Jürgen Buch, Vice President of the Berlin Guitar Association and Director of the organization of the International Guitar Competition & Festival Berlin. He will compose the work "Tổ Khúc Kiều" which is based on the work "Truyện Kiều - Nguyen Du". We're very curious about that, and we're hoping that Vietnamese music will continue to resonate and spread around the world. I hope to continue working with Prof. Dang Ngoc Long for long time.
Watch the interview with Mr. Jürgen Buch, Vice President of the Berlin Guitar Association and Director of organization of the International Guitar Competition & Festival Berlin, to learn more about this competition and Prof. Dang Ngoc Long.
