25 years Young Pianist Foundation

The Young Pianist Foundation is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year!
Goal of the YPF is to give talented young pianists the opportunity to develop and present themselves. Keywords are: select, invest and launch.

In the past 25 years (founded by Marcel Baudet and since the end of 2019 under the artistic direction of Thomas Beijer) many  master classes, concerts, concert dinners and eight competitions have been organized.
Once again, top young talent will be ready to present themselves in De Duif during the fourth YPF Young Virtuosi series (March 10, April 14, June 9, September 8, October 6 and December 1) and, of course, during the 9th YPF competition, the YPF European Piano Competition 2025, which will take place in Bimhuis and Muziekgebouw in Amsterdam from February 26 to March 9, 2025, where the three finalists will be accompanied by Phion, Orchestra of Gelderland & Overijssel.

Keep an eye on our website and socials and come enjoy!
