Elevating Excellence with a $100,000 Prize Pool and Expanded Opportunities
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Marylandian -- The Nashville International Chopin Piano Competition, the largest US-based Chopin competition, is thrilled to announce its second edition, scheduled for December 2025. Following the resounding success of its inaugural edition in 2023, the competition is expanding its format and offerings, including a $100,000 prize pool, extended age limits for the Artist Division up to 33 years of age, and enhanced opportunities for winners.
Co-directed by Joshua Izzard and Graciella Kowalczyk, the competition has swiftly garnered a reputation as a launchpad for world-class talent. The centerpiece of the second edition is once again the competition's Grand Prix, The Alexei Sultanov Memorial Discovery Prize, named in honor of the unique genius of pianist Alexei Sultanov. This $30,000 prize celebrates Sultanov's remarkable legacy, inspiring a new generation of pianists.
Finalists will perform one of the two Chopin piano concerti with orchestra as the competition expands its format, length, and stature. Beyond cash prizes, winners will also receive concert engagements, professional management opportunities, and further career-advancing initiatives.
