This summer PianissiMore studio organized the 1st Annual Piano Competition "Golden Keys". More than 40 students from different music studios and states participated in this contest. It was a great unforgettable experience for the judges to watch the participants' recordings of two contrasting pieces. The applicants were divided into three main groups which helped the adjudicators to evaluate the participants according to their levels: beginner, intermediate and advanced. Everyone did a good job showing his/her talent, passion and love for music. It was our pleasure and honor to have a chance to evaluate our "Golden Keys"' participants and we will be happy to have this competition again next summer. You can watch the winners' videos below.
