Uppsala tonsättartävling (Swedish for "Uppsala Composition Competition") is a Swedish competition for young (up to 35 years old) composers organized by Musik i Uppland (the public concert organizer owned by the county council of Uppsala County in Sweden).
Right now it is not clear if Uppsala tonsättartävling will take place a fourth time.
Six works are chosen for a final round where they are performed in public by the professional chamber orchestra Uppsala kammarorkester.
These prize winners were Jonas Valfridsson, Andrea Tarrodi [sv] and Andreas Zhibaj in 2010,[2] Daniel Fjellström, Ansgar Beste and Jonas Olofsson in 2012,[3] and Matthew Peterson,[4] David Riebe[5] and Molly Kien in 2014.
[6] The head of jury was Daniel Börtz in 2010 and 2012 and Sven-David Sandström in 2014.
