International singing competition of Toulouse

The International singing competition of Toulouse is an international classical singing competition run by the théâtre du Capitole[1] in Toulouse, France.

History

First edition took place in 1954[2]. Held annually from 1954 to 1994 (except in 1973), the competition was not held in 1995 due to theatre renovation work. When it resumed in 1996, the competition became biannual. The Competition has been a member of the World Federation of International Music Competitions since 1958[3].

In the 1970s and 1980s, the competition was marked by the large number of winners from the USSR, the United States and Romania. Since the mid-2000s, South Korea has been the winner, with 4 consecutive tenors having won the Grand Prix from 2008 to 2016[4].

gollark: While it technically isn't NECESSARY, you get more expressive power out of actually having a working type system and modules.
gollark: > nobody needs thisI feel like it's nicer to be able to declare modules and stuff rather than to just prefix all your code with "moduleWhatever".
gollark: I think Rust monomorphizes them internally.
gollark: Solve what in C?
