One of the most competitive stages at CCCTIMF — yet one of the most rewarding.

The Piano Concerto Soloist opportunity challenges every performer, and we love seeing the growth that comes with it.

Thank you Michael Jia for your inspiring performances and it takes me back to the competition last October and all of the excellent moments.
