London Young Musician Competition

You may be here wondering exactly what London Young Musician is. It is a competition which is dedicated to celebrating and supporting the worldwide learning and creation of classical music. London Young Musician is open to players of all classical music instruments and classic vocalists under the age of 28. Another thing to note is that the seasonal competition is completely online based, so applicants will not have to worry about any travel, especially given the current situation. We are amazed by how many passionate and talented musicians we have been fortunate enough to see.

How do you enter?

The London Young Musician offers 21 subcategories that you can enter, so you can find the one that best aligns with you! The three main categories are Performance Grades, Talent Artist Master, and Composition Groups. Within these, you can find subcategories ranging from age brackets of under 6’s up to 28, beginner to advanced, and composition style. We offer a lot of variety so that you can play to your strengths! It is a fantastic opportunity to publicly highlight your talent and open yourself to a wider audience.

To enter you must record a video which you can submit to us by email or as a YouTube link. The video must be made in one take, but you can submit separate videos for different pieces. Your hands and face must be visible in the video. However, you can add subtitles and adjust the colours of the video if you need to. After that, just fill in the application form and pay the fees on our website. And that is it!
