Portrait of Wilhelm Magner
About

Described as “one of the most exciting viola voices to emerge in recent years,” Wilhelm Magner became the first violist in the 111-year history of the Prix d’Europe to receive the award (2022). His interpretations are noted for “original conception” and “careful and musical research” (Béatrice Cadrin, Ludwig Van Montréal).
