Nashville International Chopin Piano Competition

Nashville International Chopin Piano Competition: The Nashville International Chopin Piano Competition is one of the highest-level and significant international competitions to be launched in recent years. Featuring a week of performances from two dozen of the world's greatest young Chopin interpreters culled from hundreds of polished applications, the competition features $100,000 prize pool, prestigious solo and orchestral engagements around the USA and world for the winners, management contracts for winners, and exposure to hundreds of thousands of viewers on traditional and social media. The competition features a highly diverse staff and jury, equitable judging procedures, and a deeply human and inclusive approach to career building. We are also thrilled to announce that the commissioned work for the 2025 competition will be composed by 2024 Pulitzer Prize-winning artist Tyshawn Sorey. Music City Chopin actively invites its laureates and participants to engage with the other programs including Piano Rainbow and Piano Truck.
