Prizes & Awards

Paris, France

Our Principles Behind Providing Awards

“Since the impetus of the competition is to inculcate a higher level of piano performance and education, we want to acknowledge participants who deserve encouragement and recognition for their good musicianship and high level of playing. Therefore we strive to award their contribution to the art of playing piano not just by providing placements or rankings but also with consolation and complimentary prizes in one form or another to those who display true potential to aid them in their future career and study opportunities. There is something for everyone as everyone has something to offer in this beloved art of piano playing which we passionately hold and commonly share.”
