Euroradio Offer: Svetozár Stracina Grand Prix folk music competition

The 2015 Svetozár Stracina Grand Prix for best folk and traditional music recording has been awarded to "Ey Love, Love", submitted by EBU Member Czech Radio.

Organized in Bratislava every two years by Radio and Television Slovakia (RTVS) under the aegis of the EBU, this international competition aims to focus on today's traditional music and to stimulate exchanges throughout Europe and beyond.

Declaring itself "very impressed" by the overall quality of the entries, the 10-member international jury gave special awards to Bulgarian National Radio (Best Traditional Performance), Radio Russia (Best Performer) and Polish Radio (Best Collection of Recordings).

Special mentions also went to contributions from Euroradio Members in the Slovak Republic, Ireland, Germany and Hungary.

All 55 competing recordings are now available to EBU Members via the Euroradio music exchange network.
