The major aim of the International Fritz Kreisler Violin Competition is to support highly talented violin soloists of all nationalities.

The support is given on the one hand during the competition by:

• providing free accommodation for the young artists that are invited to the competition in music loving families of members of the Viennese Rotary Clubs
• offering up to four performance opportunities during the competitive selection rounds at the Wiener Konzerthaus and other important venues in Vienna, including the opportunity to work with the ORF Orchestra.

• the six main prizes and special prizes awarded to the best participants. The prizes offered to the winners should help them to grow in their careers.

and on the other hand in the years immediately following the competition by:

• arranging concert engagements for the top prize winners (solo performances with orchestra and recitals with piano)

• arranging radio, television and CD recordings for the top prize winners.
