At the grand finale of the Bach Competition 2025 which was held at the Gewandhaus in Leipzig on 21 March, the result was conclusive. By a large majority, the jury awarded 21-year-old Czech Jan \u010cmejla first prize followed by his compatriot Marek Koz\u00e1k in second place and Mariamna Sherling (Israel) in third. All three performed the \u201cChromatic Fantasy and Fugue \u201d in D minor BWV 903. Subsequently they each played a piano concerto (Schumann, Mendelssohn, Grieg) together with the MDR Symphony Orchestra conducted by Enrico Delamboye.<\/p>\n\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t
