International Performers Competition Brno

The International Performers Competition Brno is an annual international music competition held in Brno, Czech Republic. It focuses on different instruments or voice categories in different years (for example flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, saxophone, trumpet, French horn, trombone, tuba, guitar, piano, organ, percussion, and sometimes voice). The competition is aimed at young performers and music students from around the world, typically including secondary-school and conservatory students as well as university-level musicians. Participants perform in live rounds in Brno before an international jury, with age categories determining repertoire and performance requirements. Winners often receive diplomas, prizes, and opportunities for concert engagements. For high school–age musicians, the competition offers a chance to gain international performance experience, receive feedback from distinguished teachers and performers, and build their artistic résumé. Specific age limits, repertoire lists, and dates vary by year and instrument category, so students need to consult the current year’s prospectus on the official website.
