Season’s greetings!

Dear friend of the CMIM,

The days are getting shorter, the streets are adorned with bright decorations and the holiday season is approaching. Now is the time to take a break, look back on the past year and celebrate our achievements of 2021.

This year again we have had to deal with uncertainty. We quickly adapted to changing circumstances and faced unexpected challenges. Thanks to your unwavering support, the CMIM was able to set up and hold its first virtual edition in record time. We have brought our community together to discover and encourage talented young pianists, and to help the winners launch careers that we hope will be flourishing.

We would like to thank you for contributing to the success of this edition with your commitment and your generosity. As a partner, donor, volunteer, host family, or audience, your involvement is essential to accomplish our mission, and it is particularly appreciated in these difficult times. The Concours could not take place without you!

We wish you a Happy New Year. Take advantage of this festive period to share good times with your loved ones. May 2022 bring you the best: health, happiness, and prosperity!

We leave you in the company of our Piano 2021 first prize, Su Yeon Kim.

As for us, we will meet again next year for Voice 2022.

The CMIM Team
