The G. Henle Beethoven Prize will be awarded by the competition jury for the most convincing interpretation of a work by Ludwig van Beethoven during the 16th Concours Géza Anda. With this endowment, G. Henle Verlag would like to raise awareness among competition participants of the crucial role played by an authentic score in musical interpretation. G. Henle Verlag is considered the first and foremost publisher of urtext editions. To this end, the prizewinner will be given access to a large number of Henle Urtext editions – either in print, or in digital form.
