第5回ロンデックス国際コンクール要項速報（更新版）

だいぶ前のことになるが、参加要項の速報が更新されたので再アップ。大枠は変わっていないが、いくつか細かい修正が入っているようだ。

それにしても、とんでもない課題曲群だと改めて思う。ロンデックス氏は選曲に携わっていることと思うが、どのように課題曲が決定したのか、そのプロセスに興味がある。一次予選に、もはや古典ともいえる「9つのエチュード」が含まれているのは、少しでも敷居を下げようとした意思の表れだろうか。二次予選の「Mixtion」「Dissidence」「L'Air」「Chymisch」というエレクトロニクス作品の選択を必須とすることによる敷居の高さとも相反するような。

エレクトロニクス作品を始めとするこの課題曲群に臆せず、ぜひ日本から多くのサクソフォン奏者が挑戦することを期待したい。
