The Lillian and Maurice Barbash J.S. Bach Competition was established in 2019 to honor the Long Island couple for their lifelong support of the arts.
Our inaugural winner, violinist Rachell Ellen Wong, went on to win a prestigious Avery Fisher Career Grant, the first baroque player to do so.
Our 2020 winner, cellist Maxime Quennesson, is one of a select group recently invited to participate in the upcoming elite Geneva Competition.
Like so many other competitions, we went virtual last year and received over 130 highly qualified entrants from all over the world. Our Finals were viewed by over 50,000 music lovers worldwide via the Violin Channel’s online stream and are available to watch via our YouTube channel.
This year, the finals of the Lillian and Maurice Barbash J.S. Bach Competition will return in person to Stony Brook University on December 1st. They will again be streamed live on The Violin Channel, guaranteeing a large international audience. As the music world begins to recover from the disastrous pandemic era, we must continue to provide opportunities for young emerging artists. We hope you will consider supporting this annual event.
Thank you for your support,
Cathy and Susan Barbash
