பதிவு & கட்டணம்

• The 2027 Vienna Chopin Junior form is accepting entries. The organizer lists 10 December 2026 at 23:59, but does not name a submission time zone. Vienna uses CET (Europe/Vienna, UTC+1) that day. The entry fee is EUR 125 plus service charge; the amount of the additional charge and refund terms are not published on the application page.
• All nationalities are eligible. Upper age limits are A 10, B 14 and C 16, inclusive. The rules calculate age on 10 December 2026, while the form says 1 December 2026. If a birthday between those dates changes eligibility, confirm the category with elevatopiano@gmail.com. No minimum age is published.
• The form requires the solo live category, full name, date of birth, nationality, address, postcode, country, email, phone, self-introduction of at most eight lines, music teacher’s name, work titles, composers, timings and YouTube link(s). If YouTube is unavailable in the applicant’s country, the form instructs the applicant to email videos to elevatopiano@gmail.com.
• After completing the form, email a recent portrait and PayPal or bank transfer payment receipt to elevatopianoapply@gmail.com. A teacher’s name is required. The form does not request a recommendation letter, referee submission, recording witness, identity-document copy or separate CV. The rules mention that applicants entering more than three consecutive times can receive a recommendation from Elevato.

• Play the solo repertoire from memory, in any order. The submitted programme cannot be changed. The rules do not specify cross-round repeats, taking written repeats, complete versus individual movements of multi-movement works, an assigned work, concerto or accompanist. The linked appendix gives the complete published repertoire list; the rules do not explicitly say whether it limits all freely chosen slots.
• The video must be from the previous 12 months, shot from one camera angle and unedited, with the full outline of the pianist and both hands clearly visible. A recording dedicated to Elevato is recommended. Put the work title in the video title. The rules do not list mandatory resolution, file size or YouTube visibility.
• The preselection results are due by 31 December 2026, with 15–20 finalists selected. The public final is on 20 March 2027 at Ehrbar Saal, Vienna; results are announced that day. No additional finalist documents or deadline are published in the checked sources.
