International Piano Competition The Muse in Greece
International Piano Competition “The Muse” in Santorini Greece has already earned reputation of a fair and friendly competition. Young and talented musicians from 26 countries have taken part in the contest since the beginning of “The Muse”. Thousands of tourists and locals of one of the most beautiful Greek islands Santorini have listened to and enjoyed the playing of the participants in the concert hall of Megaro Gyzi – a 17 century mansion.
From 2009 the organizing committee of the competition has decided to hold also an international competition for young musicians – “The Muse Junior”. “Every year, we would have to reply to at least 10-15 requests about possibilities for youngers musicians to participate in our senior competition. – says Vice-President of “The Muse” Christophor Miroshnikov. – We had to finally do something about it and added “The Muse Junior”. “The Muse Junior” 2009 will be open for younger generation of musicians in three age groups, up to 17 years of age, and in three categories – piano competition, violin competition, and cello.
