13. Israeli violinist shares top award at international music competition.
Israeli violinist Itamar Zorman and Russian violinist Sergey Dogadin both took second place in their category at the International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow and St. Petersburg.
The Tchaikovsky competition, which ended Friday, did not award a first prize this time in the violin category; instead, judges awarded the second prize of 1,000 euros to both Zorman and Dogadin.
The decision not to award a first prize ostensibly goes against the rules of the competition as published on its official website.
Yesterday, Zorman said by phone from Moscow that he is still unclear whether he and Dogadin will share the prize money. Zorman - who is the son of pianist Esterit Baltzan and composer Moshe Zorman - has studied with David Chen, Nava Milo and Hagai Shaham, and is now studying at Juilliard in New York City.
Dogadin was the only Russian among the five finalists in his category.
