Congratulations to the Winners of the 2023 Radda Rise International Vocal Competition!
ABOUT Radda Rise Competitions
Radda Rise Competitions are dedicated to fostering the musical growth of rising musicians through unique educational opportunities. Aside from just cash prizes, we’re passionate about providing an experience through which young musicians can enhance their musical careers. Within our competitions, each applicant receives a free Radda video review of their competition recordings prior to the judging round along with the option to resubmit new recordings for the judges based on the feedback from their Radda Reviewer. Additionally, each applicant received a custom biography in English or revisions of their current biography. After the competition, applicants had additional educational opportunities such as personal brand consultations, personalized starter websites, live private lessons, potential ongoing mentorship with the jurors, and discounted Radda Reviews.
