Zoltán Fejérvári won the prestigious competition this year and the additional 80 thousand dollars, reports szeretlekmagyarorszag.hu.

André Bourbeau, the head of the jury, announced the success of the 30-year-old pianist Wednesday evening. Fejérvári played Bartók’s third piano concerto in the final round, accompanied by the Montreal Symphony, with Claus Peter Flor, as the conductor. In the previous rounds, he played Janáček, Scriabin, Beethoven and Bach.

In 2014, Fejérvári received a Junior Prima award, but he has been successful at many piano competitions as well, such as the 2010 James Mottram International Piano Competition, organised in Manchester, where he placed second.
