The Bach Competition Leipzig is regarded as one of the major international competitions for young artists. First held in 1950, after several changes in format it is now a biennial event with three variable categories, this year organ, voice and cello. Christopher was part of the vocal jury, alongside the other distinguished musicians pictured below.
