He has received numerous distinctions, including the Sociedade Portuguesa de Autores Prize in 2017, as well as the first editions of the Lopes-Gra\u00e7a Composition Prize (1997), the Francisco de Lacerda Prize (1999), and the Jes\u00fas Garc\u00eda-Bernalt Prize from the University of Salamanca (2021). In 2004, he was decorated by the President of the Republic as Commander of the Order of Prince Henry.\u00a0<\/p>

Presented by the DSCH \u2013 Schostakovich Ensemble, it is the largest Composition Prize in Portugal,<\/strong> valued at \u20ac5,000, and is supported by the Directorate-General for the Arts.

The DSCH \u2013 Schostakovich Ensemble<\/strong> is currently regarded as one of the leading ensembles on the international scene. Based in Lisbon since its founding in 2006 by the pianist and artistic director Filipe Pinto-Ribeiro, the DSCH \u2013 Schostakovich Ensemble is made up of internationally acclaimed musicians and has a discography that includes albums dedicated to Shostakovich and Beethoven, released by the French label Paraty and distributed by Harmonia Mundi PIAS, which have received the highest accolades from both national and international specialized critics.<\/p>

The 2021 DSCH \u2013 Schostakovich Ensemble Composition Prize will be awarded to Eurico Carrapatoso at the next DSCH \u2013 Schostakovich Ensemble concert at the Centro Cultural de Bel\u00e9m on November 28, 2021<\/strong>.<\/p>

The concert is entitled \u201cThe Beginning and the End of Time\u201d<\/strong> and will be performed by the DSCH \u2013 Schostakovich Ensemble \u2013 consisting of Filipe Pinto-Ribeiro, Pascal Moragu\u00e8s, Esther Hoppe, and Christian Polt\u00e9ra \u2013 featuring three works dedicated to the fascinating theme of \u201ctime\u201d: the famous \u201cQuartet for the End of Time\u201d by Olivier Messiaen, one of the most iconic works of the 20th century, composed and premiered in a Nazi prisoner-of-war camp, set against the horrors and tragedies of World War II and the hope of overcoming this apocalyptic \u201ctime\u201d; \u201cC\u00edrculo,\u201d Opus 91 by the Spanish composer Joaqu\u00edn Turina, also called \u201cFantastic Trio,\u201d which reflects the \u201ccircular\u201d course of time over the span of a day; but the main highlight of the concert is the<\/strong> Portuguese premiere of Eurico Carrapatoso\u2019s new work entitled \u201cPour la Fin, pour mon Commencement\u201d<\/strong> \u2013 following its world premiere in Madrid at the SONY Auditorium on November 25, performed by the DSCH \u2013 Schostakovich Ensemble \u2013 a work in which, in the composer\u2019s own words, he sought to:<\/p>

\u201cjust as in Quatuor pour la fin du temps<\/em>, where Messiaen reviews his works written between the 1920s and the year of its composition, 1940, I also make in this work a retrospective of gestures representative of my output over the past twenty years of uninterrupted creative activity, from the daring element to the tendency that has emerged in recent times toward a more sober and concise character, as evident in the simplicity of the central movement, the piano solo, which evokes Dulcinea del Toboso, \u201clady of my soul, day of my night, glory of my sorrows, compass of my paths\u201d<\/em>, as if a Don Quixote were there singing the eternal feminine<\/em>; and, finally, passing through that diagonal that has traversed my music since I found my voice, so well expressed in the slow and introspective movements.\u201d<\/p>
