Description

 The 2024 Heida Hermanns International Music Competition, hosted by MoCA CT, is for talented pianists ages 18-35 worldwide to compete. We aim to showcase exceptional piano performances and promote music entrepreneurship in musicians. The competition includes an online preliminary round and an in-person final round where participants demonstrate their technical prowess, interpretive skills, and musical expression. It’s a platform for emerging artists to gain recognition and connect with the global music community.

This year’s competition will feature Lowell Liebermann's commissioned piece, "Nocturne No. 12," marking the first time the Heida Competition has commissioned a work. This decision highlights our commitment to fostering creativity and showcasing contemporary talent. Liebermann’s distinctive style, characterized by rich harmonies and evocative melodies, resonates deeply with audiences, making his work both accessible and thought-provoking. “Nocturne No. 12” will be performed by all finalists, enriching our program and celebrating diverse musical voices. This inclusion not only underscores our dedication to innovation but also offers a fresh perspective on modern composition. We are most grateful to the Maurer Foundation for their gracious support of this endeavor.
