The Olga Kern International Piano Competition (OKIPC) provides New Mexico Philharmonic audiences the opportunity to see developing world-class pianists at the beginning of their professional careers. This is the last round of the Third Olga Kern International Piano Competition. Each of the finalists will perform a concerto with the New Mexico Philharmonic and at the end of the concert the Jury will deliberate and announce the winner. The audience will also have the opportunity to vote for the Audience Award winner. The finalists and winners of the Competition will go on to long and acclaimed careers performing before diverse audiences on every continent, and New Mexico Philharmonic audiences will always remember that their careers began here.
The Competition takes place every three years in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and is open to pianists 18 to 32 years old.
