This will be the first of our series of online recitals, introduced by Levon Chilingirian OBE, President of the Competition.

The purpose of the recitals is partly to bring you wonderful music to enjoy in your own homes and partly, through your donations, to provide support to young professional musicians at this difficult time. Further details will be circulated to all Friends, Patrons and Supporters of the Competition.
