CONTENT COURTESY AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL PIANO AWARD
Australian National Piano Award
7 – 12 September 2020
Spring will flourish in Shepparton as it hosts the biennial Australian National Piano Award. Across a week of solo recitals at Riverlinks Eastbank, selected pianists will strive to win over $65,000 in prize money and perform impressive classical masterpieces by Bach, Haydn, Schubert, Mozart, Beethoven and many other composers.
Repertoires throughout the inspirational recital series will feature music from the Baroque, Classical, 19th-Century Romantic and French Impressionist eras, as well as music written after 1950, including works by Australian composers.
In the lead-up to the grand final, three adjudicators will listen intently and appraise every performance, while audiences can vote for their favourite pianist in the Lorna Speechley Memorial Prize for the People’s Choice.
