Composers aged 18 and under are invited to submit works for piano (solo or four hands and between 2.5 and 5 mins long) on the theme of ‘Celebration’ – to mark The Surrey Hills International Music Festival Festival’s 15th season in May 2024.
The winning work will be performed as part of the 2024 Festival season (at The Menuhin Hall, Stoke d’Abernon) and the winner and two runners-up will receive cash prizes.
The Competition launched in 2022 as part of SHIMF’s celebrations of the 150th anniversary of Ralph Vaughan Williams, with whom the county has strong links. The first competition was won by 15-year-old Matty Oxtoby, with his piano trio On Reigate Hill. Oxtoby has since won the Joan Weller competition at the Royal Academy of Music Junior Department.
