Hubert van der Spuy National Music Competition
Final results: Hubert van der Spuy National Music Competition 2025
Professor Hubert van der Spuy is as passionate and enthusiastic as ever about the instrumental competition for young musicians launched in 1989. At the time Van der Spuy was the head of the Music Department at the University of the Western Cape, where he inspired young people to become their very best. The optimal development of young musicians has always been a priority for Van der Spuy, and he is the generous donor of the competition’s first prize bearing the name of his late mother, Johanna van der Spuy. The Competition has grown into the most prestigious of its kind in South Africa and Namibia.
