Walter Furrer Prize 2026 for young singers
23 - 26 Sep, 2026
The competition is dedicated to the rediscovery of Walter Furrer's vocal works. As a German-born Swiss composer who studied in Paris with Nadia Boulanger, Furrer combined cultivated European traditions with his own artistic voice. His songs, rarely performed until now, open a new chapter in the Swiss vocal repertoire and call on young singers to bring them to life.
