  • Comment: The way the information is supported is skewed. We do not need 15 sources (!) to verify that "Peter Meso appeared as a guest" on some media. We do, however, need at least one reliable published source to verify that "Peter Meso is Jewish" (private personal information), or that he "won the first prize in the Czech National Composition Contest for young composers" (significant claim). Please ensure that all material statements, anything potentially contentious, and all private personal and family details are clearly supported by inline citations to reliable published sources. Meanwhile, please do not REFBOMB unnecessarily. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 19:54, 12 December 2022 (UTC)

In his early years, Meso became one of the laureates of the national Slovak Composition Contest for young composers "Talent Revúca".[2] On December 13, 2002, his composition Concertino Bar-Baroque for chamber orchestra won the first prize in the third category of the Czech national Composition Contest "Generace" for young composers organized annually since 1975 by AHUV with the cooperation of Janáčkův Máj and Český rozhlas Ostrava.[3] Members of the jury of the competition were Czech renown composers such as Milan Báchorek, Hanuš Bartoň, Svatopluk Havelka, Alois Piňos and Vít Zouhar.
