Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy Prize
The Mendelssohn Prize , awarded by the Prussian State from 1879 to 1936, was given new life in 1963 by the Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation. The foundation awards the Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy Prize once a year for each competition subject to particularly talented students from one of Germany's 23 recognized music universities. The award is decided in a competition with two annual changing subjects, in which each university is only allowed to nominate one candidate or one ensemble for each subject. Ensembles can also be named which are composed of students from different universities (the universities participating in the mixed ensembles agree on which university provides the nomination for this ensemble).
The rectors' conference of the conservatoires appoints the members of the juries. For each competition subject, you are composed of a rector as chairman, four specialist jurors and two non-specialist jurors.
