Regulamento e repertório

Inscrição e taxa

Apply free by 28 February 2027 through the form or concorsompm@culturaemusica.it. All nationalities, born after 1 January 1995 and on or before 1 January 2011. Submit ID, artistic CV, video links with composers, titles and durations, and proposed programmes for all three live rounds. The checklist includes no recommendation letter.
Add a recent half-length colour portrait, JPG/JPEG, 3:4, at least 1200 × 1600 and at most 3 MB, with the face unaltered. First-, second- or third-prize winners at WFIMC-recognized piano competitions can submit their diploma instead of the video for direct admission to the first live round.

Repertório

Play from memory and prepare complete works unless the jury specifies otherwise. Choose performance order. Bring the exact editions to the jury and show ID before the first live round. Programme changes by 1 April 2027. The roll-call paragraph still gives a 2025 date, so the 2027 check-in time needs organizer confirmation.
