Known for its impressive panel of international jury members and for the variety and difficulty of the required repertoire, it goes without saying that young top talent sees participation in the YPF European Piano Competition as a very useful stimulus and a stepping stone towards the major competitions, such as the Queen Elisabeth Competition in Brussels.Ramon van Engelenhoven, winner of the first prize and Grand Prix Youri Egorov 2015, commented: “The competition was a national event, but in terms of repertoire more difficult than many international piano competitions. And the international jury makes it so educational, not to mention the prospect of performing under Valery Gergiev. What other competition gives you such an opportunity?” Unfortunately, the year 2020 has shown us the dramatic impact of a worldwide pandemic, not only regarding the health of so many people but also culture; YPF strongly believes that it is now of crucial importance to create a little bit of “light” at the end of the tunnel, a long-term goal for which participants can prepare at least a year and therewith can focus on their future.
