Conductor Choi Jae-hyuk won third place in the final stage of the 6th Bucharest International Conducting Competition held at the Sala Gloria in Bucharest, Romania on the 18th (local time).
Conductors from all over the world competed fiercely to perform Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 6, Pathétique. As a result, Noemi Pasquina (Spain) took first place and Dominic Grier (UK) took second place.
Choi Jae-hyuk and the winners went on stage for a gala concert at the Romanian Athenaeum, a landmark and historic concert hall in Bucharest, Romania, at 7:30 PM the following day, the 19th. They went up to the podium of the Bucharest Symphony Orchestra and conducted Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 6 Pathétique, Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No. 1, and Tchaikovsky’s Polonaise Eugene Onegin. As a prize winner of this competition, Choi Jae-hyuk received the right to conduct three professional European orchestras and a cash prize.
John Axelrod, chairman of the competition jury, praised Choi Jae-hyuk as “a promising next-generation conductor who will lead the world of conducting in the future.”
Choi Jae-hyuk, who first made a name for himself as the youngest winner of the composition category at the 2017 Geneva Competition, made his international debut the following year in 2018 conducting the London Symphony Orchestra with Sir Simon Rattle at the Lucerne Festival. Choi has performed with the Zurich Tonhalle Orchestra, Philadelphia Orchestra, London Philharmonic, Verbier Festival Orchestra, Daejeon Philharmonic Orchestra, Bucheon Philharmonic Orchestra, and Gyeonggi Philharmonic Orchestra.
