Sunday 29th of January 2023 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yesterday was the annual yearly festive evening with my fellow brothers in Karlsbr\u00f6derna, a society of selected gentlemen with a strong connection to V\u00e4ster\u00e5s. Karlsbr\u00f6derna have existed for 165 years and one of the missions of Karlsbr\u00f6derna is to help young talents in Music (music takes a very important part during the festive evenings with the Chorus performing a plethora of 4-part traditional songs), and this year of 2023 I was very happy that I for the first time had one of my own student receiving the prize: Lasha Merebashvili. Lasha was born and raised in Georgia but later moved to Sweden where he has been my student at the university since 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before starting his Bachelor’s education in V\u00e4ster\u00e5s, he received prizes in several international piano competitions, e.g. 2016 1st prize at the International Music Festival Competition “Stars at Tenerife” and 2017 2nd prize at both the W.A Mozart 2nd International Competition in Tbilisi, Georgia and the IMCA International Competition “Musical Fireworks in Baden-W\u00fcrttenberg” in Germany. During his studies, he received 1st prize in Chamber Music at the Northern Lights International Music Festival Competition in Arvika.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With his brilliant and energetic piano playing, and also with his international perspective, Lasha has strongly contributed to the environment within university music activities. Lasha’s student years have been challenged by both a pandemic and a war, so it is extra gratifying that he can now receive this scholarship, which was intended to be granted in 2020, but was delayed until this year because of the pandemy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Congratulations Lasha!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

S\u00f6ndagen den 29:e januari 2023 Stipendium Karlsbr\u00f6derna<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ig\u00e5r var det \u00c5rsh\u00f6gtid med mina medbr\u00f6der i Karlsbr\u00f6derna, ett s\u00e4llskap av utvalda prominenta herrar med stark anknytning till V\u00e4ster\u00e5s. Karlsbr\u00f6derna har funnits i 165 \u00e5r och ett av Karlsbr\u00f6dernas uppdrag \u00e4r att hj\u00e4lpa unga talanger inom musiken (musiken tar en mycket viktig roll under de festliga kv\u00e4llarna d\u00e4r tex. k\u00f6ren framf\u00f6r en uppsj\u00f6 av 4-st\u00e4mmiga traditionella s\u00e5nger). Jag var v\u00e4ldigt glad att jag f\u00f6r f\u00f6rsta g\u00e5ngen fick se att en av mina egna pianostudenter fick priset: Lasha Merebashvili. Lasha \u00e4r f\u00f6dd och uppvuxen i Georgien men flyttade senare till Sverige d\u00e4r han har varit min student p\u00e5 universitetet sedan 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Innan han p\u00e5b\u00f6rjade sin kandidatutbildning i V\u00e4ster\u00e5s erh\u00f6ll han priser i flera internationella pianot\u00e4vlingar, tex. 2016 1:a pris vid International Music Festival Competition \u201dStars at Tenerife\u201d och 2017 2:a pris p\u00e5 b\u00e5de W.A Mozart 2nd International Competition i Tbilisi, Georgien och IMCA International Competition \u201dMusical Fireworks in Baden-W\u00fcrttenberg\u201d i Tyskland. Under studietiden  erh\u00f6ll han 1:a pris i Kammarmusik vid t\u00e4vlingen Northern Lights International Music Festival Competition i Arvika.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lasha har med sitt briljanta och energiska pianospel, men \u00e4ven med sitt internationella perspektiv, starkt bidragit till milj\u00f6n inom universitets musikverksamhet. Lashas student\u00e5r har utmanats av b\u00e5de en pandemi och ett krig, s\u00e5 det \u00e4r extra gl\u00e4djande att han nu kan f\u00e5 detta stipendium som var t\u00e4nkt att beviljas 2020, men blev f\u00f6rsenat till i \u00e5r p\u00e5 grund av pandemin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stort Grattis Lasha!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
