We are really proud to announce that the Jury of the International Classical Music Awards (ICMA) presented the winners of 26 awards for the 2024 edition and our ORAZIO SCIORTINO wis as best composer of the year with this motivation:

“Pianist, conductor and composer, the Sicilian musician Orazio Sciortino combines a thorough knowledge of tradition with an open spirit, which is reflected in musical writing free of constraints, open to the suggestions of modernity, yet always strongly personal and recognisable: his catalogue, in short, reflects the ideal figure of a 21st century composer, whose talent transcends the ideological constraints of the past.”

The winners will receive the ICMA awards during the annual awards ceremony which will take place at the Palau de la Musica in Valencia on 12 April where for the occasion they will perform one Sciortino’s pieces.

Congratulations!
