Paganini Competition

Participants are of all nationalities and are between 15 and 31 years of age.

Preliminaries: Preliminary repertoire includes two selections for solo violin or violin and piano accompaniment and two Caprices from Paganini's 24 Caprices, Op.1 M.S. 25 for solo violin.

Semi-Finals: Three or four selections for solo violin or violin and piano, one virtuoso piece by Paganini, and one contemporary piece.

Finals: Two pieces with orchestra that may be a whole concerto or part of a concerto. One of the two pieces is always by Paganini.

There are eight judges. They are all musicians, usually violinists, but sometimes composers, conductors, or other musicians.

Controversy ensued prior to the 2018 competition when, in February 2018, Fabio Luisi resigned as chairman of the competition, in protest at his perceived imposition of judges by the Italian cultural official Elisa Serafini.^[1][2]

Six musicians place, though occasionally seven have been awarded the prize. Since 1989 special placement has been awarded. It is no longer possible to be joint winners. The player selected by the judges, however, will be given the honor of playing one of Paganini's violins and one of the most known violin owned by Paganini, the Il Cannone made by Guarneri 'Del Gesu', and is often offered recording contracts.

Prize in memory of Dr. Enrico Costa: Offered by the Costa Family to the youngest participant admitted to the Final.

Prize in memory of the Renato De Barbieri: Offered by the Government of the Province of Genoa to one of the finalists for the best interpretation of Paganini’s Capricci within the Preliminary and Semifinal Stages.

Prize of the Association Amici di Paganini: Offered by the Association for the finest performance of the Paganini Concerto.

Prize in memory of Mario Ruminelli: Offered by the Ruminelli Family to the best placed finalist

Friends of the Nuovo Carlo Felice Association prize: Offered for the best performance of the commissioned work.^[3]
