SCHOENFELD INTERNATIONAL STRING COMPETITION
The Schoenfeld International String Competition was founded in 2013 in honor of the violinist Alice Schoenfeld and the cellist Eleonore Schoenfeld, both legendary performers and pedagogues. First held in Hong Kong and later settled permanently in Harbin, the Schoenfeld aims to build a multi- faceted platform for gifted violinists,
cellists, and chamber music performers all over the world.
Chamber music ensembles include: string quartet, piano trio, and piano quartet. Among the laureates of the last decade are Jinjoo Cho, Bomsori Kim, Jiwon Song, Anastasia Kobekina, Zlatomir Fung, Jérémy Garbarg, the Goldmund, Notos, and Ulysses Quartets as well as Trio Concept (formerly Trio Chagall). Held every two years, the next edition of the Schoenfeld Competition will take place from 11-25 July, 2025.
