(2002) XIXth Clara Haskil Competition 2001 (Live Recording) Bruno Pratico and Claude StarckThe Clara Haskil Competition was founded in 1963 and quickly established itself as one of the most prestigious piano competitions in Europe. The competition is held every two years in Vevey, Switzerland, where Clara Haskil lived from 1942 until her death in 1960. The jury, which has been presided by Michel Dalberto since 1991, awards only one prize which cannot be shared. Previous winners include Christoph Eschenbach, Eugeni Korolyov and Till Fellner.
