Four students of the singing department of the Faculty of Music of the University of Debrecen achieved outstanding results in the III. “Wiener Klassiker” at the Danubia Talents International Music Competition. The students’ performance was judged by a jury of international experts.
Due to the coronavirus epidemic, the competition was held online, applicants had to send videos of their performances, and an international jury then selected the best ones. The recordings had to be uploaded to Youtube by the contestants without editing, and the final result was reached on March 23, based on the productions.

– Four applied and all four were successful. They try to direct the students to enter competitions if they can achieve a good result there. The emphasis here is on preparation, which is why the work of tutors should be highlighted. All the professionals work with incredible enthusiasm and full effort in the faculty, and during their recruitment, they manage to select young people who thank them with their talent and diligence. Such results are very good for both the faculty and the university because they draw attention to the inspiring work going on here – emphasized Ildikó Iván, Head of the Department of Private Affairs at the Faculty of Music of the University of Debrecen.
