 Prizes
and awards are valued at over $250,000, including over 40 engagements
worldwide. Perhaps the greatest prize, however, is the loan of
the 1683 "ex-Gingold" Stradivari violin and Tourte bow which will
be made available to one of the competition's laureates for four
years. The first laureate will receive a Carnegie Hall recital
and a debut CD recording, in addition to $30,000
and a 24k gold medal. The Washington Post noted that "the
prizes of the 'Indianapolis' place it in the forefront of world
music contests."
