The Toronto-based Azrieli Music Prizes recently presented the European premieres of all three works by the 2022 laureate composers in AMP’s London debut concert at Cadogan Hall. Here’s my report:
Launched a little less than a decade ago, the Azrieli Music Prizes (AMP) have already grown to become Canada’s largest competition devoted to music composition.

Steven Mercurio, a member of the AMP Jewish Music jury, led the Philharmonia Orchestra and guest soloists.
