Music Matters International Music Competition

                     The Music Matters International Music Competition will be held in August Virtually. The Music Matters Foundation, a non-profit organization founded in 2016, sponsors the competition. The foundation aims to cultivate a positive music learning environment and experience music's happiness through accessible music education and varied musical activities. The Music Matters International Music Competition and Festival hopes to connect artists worldwide with students through collaborative projects and aims to discover and nurture young musical talents worldwide while promoting classical music and cultural exchange. Our goal is to provide a platform for talented musicians to showcase their skills, connect with like-minded individuals, and receive constructive feedback from experts. The competition invites young musicians from around the globe to gather in Bellevue, WA. Organizers hope this experience will enrich participants' musical journeys and open doors to future opportunities. 

​

Music Matters Foundation co-organizes the competition with Happy Minds School of Music. We strive to provide contestants with an educational and inspirational competition experience. The competition has two phases: participants submit their recordings to perform before judges and have the chance to attend an honor concert with world-renowned musicians. Winners will receive customized trophies and engagement opportunities to further their musical careers.

The Music Matters International Music Competition seeks to discover the next generation of musical excellence while bringing people together through a shared love of music.
