Ahead of Eurovision Young Musicians 2026, we caught up with Manoush Toth, who will represent Switzerland in this year\u2019s contest.<\/p>\n
With Eurovision Young Musicians 2026 less than a week away, we spoke to the Swiss representative Manoush Toth. We discussed with her about how someone else\u2019s old piano made her fall in love with the instrument, bringing the music of Clara Schumann to a wider audience, and her reaction to finding out that her classmate Edward Ahlbeck Glader would be representing Sweden this year.<\/p>\n
We thank Manoush Toth for her time and wish her and the Swiss delegation the best of luck in this year\u2019s contest. Manoush Toth was selected to represent Switzerland at Eurovision Young Musicians after winning the Swiss selection in March.<\/p>\n
