Seppo Siirala, head of the jury:
”The standard of playing in the final was high. All of the four finalists had quite different programs which reflected the various qualities of the players. The jury had a difficult task in deciding the prizes and as a result decided to share the second prize between two players. The winner of the competition, Flavio Nati, displayed a high degree of musicianship and technical ability throughout the competition.”
