The Canadian Chopin Piano Competition takes place every five years, in conjunction with the International F. Chopin Piano Competition held in Warsaw, Poland. The competition is open to Canadian pianists, and there are three divisions; Junior, Intermediate, and Senior. Competitors perform works by Chopin for a jury of internationally renowned pianists: Krzysztof Jablonski (chair), Magdalena Baczewska, Avan Yu, Jane Coop, and Ian Hobson. The Junior Division features the next generation of pianists, born between 2012 and 2016. Twelve finalists from the virtual preliminary round were selected by the jury to progress to the in-person round, held at Mazzoleni Hall at the TELUS Centre for Performance & Learning in Toronto, Ontario. After an incredible day of phenomonial performances, three winners were selected along with a jury discretionary prize and two honourable mentions.
