Piano 2021
Piano 2021
Classical in Tune with the times
From April 26 to May 14, 2021, 26 of the world’s finest young pianists will take part in the 19th edition of the CMIM. Modern technology and the generous support of our loyal partners will allow us to realize an entirely online competition where emotion is guaranteed to transcend the screen.
The CMIM has never been so international – Hailing from eleven different countries and currently confined in sixteen different cities, the competitors, selected over a year ago, are eager to take the plunge into this great digital adventure.
The pianists will compete in two rounds. The twenty-six recitals of the semifinal round and the eight recitals of the final round will be professionally recorded around the world.

Concerto with the OSM
The Orchestre symphonique de Montréal, longstanding partner of the CMIM, will contribute to Piano 2021, despite being unable to perform with our finalists as they normally would. Our official orchestra has graciously agreed to invite this year’s first prize winner to come to Montréal to perform a concerto in a future season.
