LIFEM’s Young Ensemble Competition is a biennial competition that was first launched in 2018, and alternates years with the longstanding SRP/Moeck Solo Recorder Competition. Alongside cash prizes for the finalists, the winners are invited back to LIFEM the following year to perform their winners’ recital. This international competition is open to ensembles from around the globe, with an average member age of 30 or under. The aim of the competition is to provide a platform to support upcoming young Early Music ensembles and bring them to the attention of a wider audience.
2024 adjudicators:

The competition is sponsored by The Early Music Shop
