Young Musician Competition
The CMA Young Musician Competition is a celebration of performance and musicianship at all levels, which encourages commitment and rewards excellence. Participants gain invaluable performance experience and benefit from feedback from a team of experienced adjudicators.
This year, for the first time we are creating 2 tracks for our competition. Rock and Pop, which will take place in Novembner 2024, and Classical which will take place in February 2025.
For information about the Rock and Pop track, please click here.
Infromation on the Classical Track will be available in eary November, information on this can be found here.
There are two rounds to the competition; the Class Heats, followed level Awards. The Class Heats are open to all ages and abilities and are as inclusive as possible because we believe that music is for everyone and it’s never too early to start performing. All entrants will receive written feedback from a respected adjudicator and a certificate of participation. The top performances from each Class Heat will be given a gold award (silver and bronze awards may also be awarded at the adjudicator's discretion). The gold winners will progress to compete for the overall Level Award.
The Level Awards Final takes place before a panel of judges, with the winnes of each level taking home the CMA Young Musician Level Award Trophy. Note that the competition is open to students who have a lessons with a CMA Specialist at our Centre of in one of our partner schooos.
