International chamber music competition for ensembles of piano and strings
***

The Parkhouse Award was founded in 1990 in memory of David Parkhouse and his outstanding work as a chamber musician in Britain and abroad, notably as pianist and founder-member of the Music Group of London. The award is made at the biennial chamber music competition, which happens for the next time in March 2009, to an ensemble of piano and strings: duos, piano trios and piano quartets.

At the 2007 competition the jury was unable to make the award (see press release) and the series of three concerts usually awarded to the new winners will instead be given by three former holders of the Award, DIMENSION, the Fauré Quartett and the Grieg Trio.
