The award-winning guitarist Jonas Egholm (1997, Danmark) started playing the guitar at age seven, and by the time he was ten he went on his first concert tour around Denmark and Germany in connection with being awarded the 1^st prize in the Danish Radio Symphony Orchestra’s competition for young musicians. He has attained wide international recognition and performed in several countries in Europe including Germany, Sweden, France, Spain, as well as the Faroe Islands, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Montenegro Hungary, China and Japan.

Jonas has finished his Bacherol and Master’s degree on the Royal Danish Academy of Music in Copenhagen, Denmark with highest marks, and is now completing the soloist programme for the most talented students of this Academy.
