The main highlights of our Competition:

Trust

For the 10th time, the PCO is being held and has already welcomed more than 800 participants from over 65 countries. Many of them were awarded top prizes such as cash scholarships, interviews in Maestro Magazine or live concerts.

Quality

Attending a PCO is a guarantee that you will be fully listened to and professionally assessed. The PCO is also a valuable source of insightful feedback – a report from experienced performers and pedagogues on your musical development.

Innovation

PCO is a competition with an innovative and convenient online audition format. All you have to do is record your performance and submit it via a simple application form. This is a time and money saving solution as there is no need for travel or accommodation.

Jury members are prizewinners in many international piano competitions.
They are first-class concert pianists and experienced piano-pedagogues.
Experience gained through their concert careers inspired them to
create the competition tailored to the needs of modern young pianists.

The objective of this initiative is twofold: firstly, to provide assistance to young musicians in the development of their careers, and secondly, to disseminate the culture of classical music on a global scale.

We seek to identify and disseminate exceptional performances through the medium of the Internet, thereby facilitating the global promotion of classical music.

In each edition, our aim is to ensure that the competition is conducted in an impartial manner, with participants being evaluated on the basis of objective criteria, without any form of bias or undue influence.
