Directed by Elijus Romanovas, the International Nehama Lifshitz Vocal Competition (Lithuanian: Tarptautinis Nechamos Lifšicaitės vokalistų konkursas) is an annual competition for classical singers held in Vilnius, Lithuania. Established in 2021 to honour the Lithuanian-Jewish soprano Nechama Lifshitz, often called “the Jewish nightingale”, the event promotes Jewish music alongside classical vocal performance and attracts singers from Lithuania and abroad.
The aim of the competition is to promote Jewish music and showcase its leading performers and composers.
