Let talented young people stand at a higher starting point and go to the world!

 
Preface: In 2013, the first global outstanding young performers selection competition was launched in China. As we paid attention to several top global competitions, the final round that determines the winner and the ranking is to cooperate with the orchestra to perform a concerto. At that time, professional players in China did not have many opportunities to train and cooperate with the orchestra, and to learn concertos. So we set up a concerto group from the first session, which attracted many talented young performers to participate. At that time, few competitions would set up a concerto group, and we also invited the conductor of a professional orchestra to serve as our main judge. This really made the players from professional colleges at that time open up. We have started to pay attention to the study of concertos, and we have also received strong support from the Wuhan Philharmonic Orchestra and conductor Liu Peng. We have invited the winners of the Signed Young Performer Award to have the opportunity to cooperate with national professional orchestras. In the annual June 1st Cooperation Young Performer Concerto Concert, these young performers are given a very high starting point, and in order to lay the foundation for cultivating the next generation of professional performers, some of our previous signed young performers have entered the world's top four international competitions and won awards. Some have been admitted to the world's top music colleges, and the signed young performers over the years have also started their careers as touring professional performers. Starting from 2022, we decided to set up a special concerto competition to attract more people to pay attention to the study of concertos and give more talented young performers a higher starting point!                                               --------Chairman of the Global Outstanding Chinese Artists Association: Pan Fangfang
