Macao Young Musicians Competition
Foreword
The annual Macao Young Musicians Competition is
organised by the Cultural Affairs Bureau of the Macao S.A.R. Government with the
aim of advancing the musical arts in the territory and enhancing the training
and performance abilities of young local musicians. This year marks the 26th
year of the Competition. Over the past quarter-century, the Macao Young
Musicians Competition has given thousands of young people the opportunity to
gain precious stage experience, and thus has played a vital role in the
improvement of the musical skills of Macao’s youth. As last year’s competition
featured piano categories, this year the focus will be on Chinese instruments,
Western instruments, and Vocal music. In each category, along with the regular
prizes, the Organiser will continue to award “Special Prizes” to support young
musicians who show outstanding talent or potential to further their studies in
Macao or abroad.
