The 2024 Heida Hermanns International Music Competition, hosted by MoCA CT, is for talented pianists ages 18-35 worldwide to compete. We aim to showcase exceptional piano performances and promote music entrepreneurship in musicians. The competition includes an online preliminary round and an in-person final round where participants demonstrate their technical prowess, interpretive skills, and musical expression. It’s a platform for emerging artists to gain recognition and connect with the global music community.

In addition to a cash prize, the Winner will receive an invitation to perform a solo recital at MoCA CT the following year. Finalists will be provided with transportation accommodations and lodging with a host family for the final round.
