13th Blue-T International Piano Concerto Competition 2027 – Japan

02 - 10 Feb, 2027

The Blue-T International Piano Concerto Competition offers pianists a rare opportunity to perform a full piano concerto with orchestra in Japan.

Unlike traditional competitions focused on elimination rounds, this event emphasizes real concert experience. Participants perform with a professional orchestra at Yokohama Minato Mirai Hall, one of Japan’s leading venues, located approximately 30 minutes from Tokyo.

A wide range of concerto repertoire is accepted (subject to orchestration feasibility). The competition is designed to be flexible and supportive, welcoming pianists from around the world.

Each participant receives:

・Full concerto performance with orchestra
・High-quality audio recording
・Professional video recording
・Jury feedback

The competition is held over two schedules (A and B), allowing flexible participation.

This event is ideal for pianists seeking orchestral experience, performance opportunities, and professional recordings.

Bewerbungsschluss: 31 Dez 2026

Read advisory note

This competition appears to include an online round that charges over €35. musicalchairs is concerned that the fee for online judging must be commensurate with the value offered to applicants whether they are successful or unsuccessful. Please therefore study the guidelines for this competition carefully:

Is the Jury for the online round published and are they widely respected musicians?
Does each Jury member listen to the submissions in full?
Do applicants receive detailed and considered feedback about their complete performance/score from the Jury?
