The Fribourg Cantonal Soloists Competition is an unmissable event for musicians from our music societies. All instruments – brass, woodwind, percussion and drums – will be represented.
Around 400 musicians are expected to take part in this 32nd edition. With the various halls at the Cycle d'orientation de la Glâne, the Conservatoire à Epicentre and the Bicubic theatre, we are fortunate to have ideal venues for this event.
The Fribourg Cantonal Soloist Competition offers musicians, most of whom are under 16 years of age, a unique opportunity to measure themselves against their peers and develop their skills. Participating in a soloist competition helps them gain confidence and perfect their art.
A cantonal soloist competition is also, above all, a time for meeting and socialising, where the audience and musicians can exchange ideas and share their passion.
