XIX ANNUAL ARTS COMPETITION FOR YOUNG PERFORMERS
INSTRUMENTAL DIVISION

PRACTICE BUILDS TECHNIQUE. PERFORMANCE BUILDS MUSICIANS.

Learning to play an instrument is a remarkable journey. Learning to perform before an audience is another challenge entirely.

Music has the remarkable ability to inspire, comfort, and connect people beyond words. Every accomplished musician once sat at an instrument for the very first time, discovering that practice, dedication, and passion can transform simple notes into something unforgettable.

The Colibri Instrumental Competition was created to provide young musicians with a welcoming and supportive stage where they can experience the excitement and responsibility of live performance. Standing before a jury and an audience requires more than technical preparation – it calls for confidence, concentration, and artistic expression, qualities that can only be developed through experience.

Colibri is more than a competition. It is a training platform where young performers build stage confidence, receive valuable feedback from experienced judges, and celebrate their musical achievements alongside fellow musicians. Whether this is your very first public performance or another important milestone on your musical journey, every appearance on stage is an opportunity to learn, grow, and discover your own musical voice.

We believe that every accomplished musician once stood where our participants stand today – with excitement, determination, and a dream. Every performance deserves appreciation, every participant deserves encouragement, and every musical journey deserves to be celebrated.

We invite young instrumentalists to perform, discover their potential, and take another meaningful step on their musical journey.

PERFORM. LEARN. GROW.
