In 2022 the competition will be open to duos of which one person is registered as a student, while the other has been registered as such and has received his or her diploma on or after March 17th 2021. Please note that this an exception to our normal regulation. We decided to give more graduated students the possibility to enroll, because of the limited possibilities they had last years, due to COVID and the fact that we postponed this edition for the same reasons.

Within the next days your Conservatory, Music Academy, Universität, Conservatoire or Musikhochschule will receive the flyer/poster with a lot of information about the International Student LiedDuo Competition 2022. Also your teachers or head of departments will have the digital flyer, that they can forward to all of you.

Think wisely about your repertoire, the application portal is welcoming you from 17 March, 8 months before the beginning of the competition. For quick deciders, who apply ultimately on 17 June, there will be an ‘early bird”-advantage concerning the compulsory repertoire.

June night

A Nocturne

On poetry by Sara Teasdale

The new commissioned song by Anne-Maartje Lemereis will be composed on a beautiful poem by Sara Teasdale, June night. The text is available here.

This text should give you the inspiration, the theme and the background for your choice of repertoire in the semi-finals.

Anne-Maartje Lemereis, the composer of the commissioned song for ISLDC 2022 chose a beautiful poem by American poet Sara Teasdale: June Night.

Title of the song will be:

June Night

(A nocturne)

You can find the text on this website, and let yourself be inspired to conceive a nice programme around the themes in this short poem.

Below you can find a link about Anne-Maartje’s last year’s experiences during the Covid-19 crisis.
