The Piano Awards 2026
The Piano Awards 2026 continues to celebrate dedication and the musical growth of young pianists across our campuses.
Following the video submission round, selected finalists will advance to the Grand Finale, where they will perform live before the distinguished judge.
The competition provides students with an opportunity not only to demonstrate their progress but also to experience the excitement and discipline of performing in a formal competition setting.
The finale will take place at the BKK1 campus, bringing together students, families, and teachers to celebrate the achievements of our young musicians.
We wish all finalists the very best as they prepare for the final stage of the competition.
Mini-Concert – Term I 2026
The stage is set; get ready for an exciting mini-concert, where selected performers will show off their hard work and progress! The Term I Mini-Concert will wrap up a meaningful conclusion to the first study term of the year.
Across our Phnom Penh and Siem Reap campuses, selected students will take to the stage to perform pieces they have been working on throughout the term.
Events like these play an important role in our students’ musical journeys. Performing helps young musicians develop stage presence, discipline, and the ability to share music with an audience.
