Stretto is a non-profit organization dedicated to fostering musical education and excellence among young pianists. As part of our vision, we are proud to introduce the Stretto International Competition, which will take place for the first time in Tel Aviv, Israel, from September 22nd to September 27th, 2024.
 
Our competition stands out for its focus on the concerto genre, providing young pianists from around the world with the unique opportunity to perform with an orchestra at the outset of their professional journey.
 
During the Stretto Competition, young pianists will have the chance to connect with their peers, listen to each other, learn, and grow. Finalists will also gain invaluable experience by conducting rehearsals with a professional orchestra, honing their ensemble skills, and, most importantly, performing live with an orchestra. We believe this event will be a significant and memorable milestone in the participants' lives. To facilitate this, we have curated a special repertoire of concerti, ensuring that each participant can select pieces appropriate for their age group.
 
While our focus is on nurturing young musicians, we also aim to cultivate a new generation of music enthusiasts. Therefore, the competition is open to the public. If you’re not a performing pianist, we invite you to join us for the finals — to support the performers and foster a love for music in yourself and your children.
 
We eagerly anticipate welcoming you this fall in Tel Aviv!
 
Warm regards,
The Stretto Team
