Hilton Head International Piano Competition - Road to Carnegie Hall - Round III SEMIFINALS

This impressive group of pianists–ranging in age from 20 to 30, with ten countries represented–were selected from a total pool of 193 applicants, hailing from 30 different countries across the globe! We must also express our most sincere gratitude to our remarkable Competitor Selection Jury this year—Alan Chow, Yong Hi Moon, and Antonio Pompa-Baldi—for their time and expertise to help us reach this next phase in our competition. We can’t wait to welcome these 20 outstanding artists to Hilton Head this spring, and we hope that you will plan to join us here to watch and hear them perform between March 10-17, 2025 (and for those who can’t travel to Hilton Head Island, we are pleased to confirm that all rounds of the HHIPC 2025 will indeed be livestreamed once again on our website)!
