PianoArts MKE

Artists appearing on this channel are contestants in PianoArts Competitions, artists-in-residence, and featured guests for concerts presented by PianoArts.

PianoArts sponsors a North American Competition for pianists, ages 16-21, living full time in North America, and a Wisconsin Competition for ages 10-16. Both competitions are presented in partnership with the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra. Winners of both competitions receive cash awards and bookings for concerts. Other awards include PianoArts fellowships and artist residencies that include professional development in audience communication and creating innovative programs for diverse audiences. 

Communication is the key in all effective PianoArts programs. Both competition contestants and artists-in-residence speak about music to their audiences.
