VI Queen Elisabeth Music Competition

The sixth edition of the Queen Elisabeth Music Competition took place in 1955 and was the third one devoted to violin. The Soviet violin school couldn't attain a third victory after the successes of David Oistrakh in 1937 and Leonid Kogan in 1951 as Berl Senofsky managed to beat Julian Sitkovetsky. Senofsky remains the only American who has won the violin competition to date.
