Last night, the Grand Finale of the 1st International Piano Competition in Split was held at the beautiful Tijardović Concert Hall in Split. At 6:00 PM, the Gala Concert of the finalists began, featuring 11 of the finest pianists of this year’s competition. The performances were outstanding, and the level of competition was truly remarkable.

We are proud to have hosted these young world-class talents in our beautiful city of Split. Our wish is for this competition to become a lasting tradition - one that will bring many promising young artists from around the world to Split year after year.

This year’s award winners are:
🥇 First Prize – Anna Linkova
🥈 Second Prize – Yui Higashijima
🥉 Third Prize – Roberto Rumenov

The Audience Prize was awarded to Faruk Kalayci, while the Prize for the Best Performance of a Croatian Composition went to Nao Tomura.

With this, we officially close this year’s piano competition edition. However, the Split International Music Competition is just getting started! In September, we are looking forward to new competitions in three categories: saxophone, guitar, and cello. More information will be announced soon.

Thank you for being part of the very beginning of this story!
