	50 years of emotion - Historical
		The Queen Elisabeth Competition has for fifty years provided an extremely broad palette of emotions for music lovers: passion, joy, sadness, commitment, argumentation… communion with music, in spite of all the reproaches or reserves one might have from time to time.
		This functional and elegant building was inaugurated in 1939 in Waterloo as a higher institute for music teaching, in which the pupil-residents studied the piano, the violin, the viola, the cello or composition with their chosen teacher in exceptional conditions of comfort and tranquillity.
		Inaugurated with the violin in 1951, the competition celebrated its twenty-fifth anniversary in 1976 (which was also the centenary of the birth of Queen Elisabeth) by changing the usual order of the sessions in its favour.

		In 1937 a dream, long-cherished by Queen Elisabeth of Belgium and Eugène Ysaye, came true: the Concours Eugène Ysaye was born.
		However, the Queen’s determination was such that the competition was eventually resumed in 1951 under its present name.
		The Competition’s archives, as well as those of Belgian Radio, had much to offer and thus allowed for a fairly comprehensive, though far from exhaustive, survey of the Competition’s history, even if many difficult decisions had to be taken as to what should be included.
