Esther Muradov's outstanding performance places her among top finalists at the 2007 IBLA GRAND PRIZE International Music Competitions and Festival.

The sunbaked island of Sicily, the largest and historically richest in the Mediterranean, is the scene of the IBLA GRAND PRIZE, a competition held in a hall buried among the clusters of 17th & 18th century stone buildings that crowd the little threads of streets. The IBLA Foundation in New York organizes an annual music competition which takes place during the last week of June and the first week of July in Ragusa Ibla, Italy.

WINNERS are presented in such venues as "Lincoln Center", "Alice Tully Hall" and "Carnegie Hall" in New York, the "Tokyo Opera City Hall", the "Tchaikovsky Bolshoi Hall" in Moscow as well as other prestigious venues in Canada, Europe, Russia and the USA.

"Esther is an experienced participant on the international music scene...having studied at the Moscow Conservatory of Music and performed at the Euro Music Festival in Leipzig, Germany" and we wish her well."
