This Piano edition of the Queen Elisabeth Competition has been an incomparable success. To achieve such a level of excellence would not have been possible without the contribution and true support of many.
Our gratitude goes to our main partner, the National Lottery; the structural sponsors of the Competition: BNP Paribas Fortis, Proximus, TotalEnergies Foundation, Rolex; our patrons, and the prize donors.
Our thanks also to our media partners - RTBF and VRT - Flagey, Bozar, Pianos Maene, Steinway & Sons, the Orchestre Royal de Chambre de Wallonie and conductor Vahan Mardirossian, the Brussels Philharmonic and conductor Kazushi Ono, and the composers Ana Sokolović en Kris Defoort.
Our gratitude goes to the members of the jury, the host families and the volunteers.
Last but not least, the Competition would not be what it is without its loyal audience, so numerous in the concert halls that were sold-out as from the first round, and who are following us through the broadcasting channels made available to them.
The tireless efforts, talent and passion for music that all participants showcased over the last couple of weeks were admirable. We wish all of them the very best for the future!
