Application is closed

The online application for the YPF European Piano Competition 2022 – Grand Prix Youri Egorov is closed. If you have any questions concerning the application, please contact us via participants@ypf.nl.

Seven times YPF has created an important and inspiring stage for young talents to shine, and for exciting careers to be launched. Known for its impressive panel of international jury members and for the variety and difficulty of the required repertoire (including the new work by the Dutch composer Reza Namavar), the participation in the YPF European Piano Competition could be 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?”

On behalf of the Team of the Young Pianist Foundation,

Thomas Beijer, Artistic Director

"The YPF Competition was my first big step towards the international career. It opened many doors of the important concert halls. Thanks to the competition I gained the experience, knowledge and discovered artistic freedom, it gave me a chance to understand my goals as a musician.
Dreams can come true and the YPF Competition is helping pianists to reach them!"
