We regret to inform you that on grounds of his health Josef Suk has asked to be relieved of the duties of Chairman of the violin competition. The position will be taken by Professor Michael Frischenschlager of Vienna. Professor Ivan Štraus is the new representative of the Czech Republic on the committee.
Josef Suk will continue to be the Patron of this year’s competition, and will present the Suk prize for the best performance of his grandfather’s Four Pieces for Violin and Piano.
