Overview
The International Violin Competition of Indianapolis (IVCI) is pleased to announce details regarding the 12th Quadrennial Competition.
“Every Quadrennial is an exciting opportunity to search the world for the latest great talents,” says IVCI Executive Director Glen Kwok. “The Indianapolis is proud of its extraordinary list of distinguished Laureates spanning the last four decades and looks forward to adding six new discoveries to the list after the 12th Quadrennial. The Indianapolis is far more than a competition; it is a career-launching opportunity with significant post-competition career management and mentorship.”
