IYMC is delighted to introduce our new venture, namely IYMC SHOWCASE.
In addition to our monthly online competitions, we are launching in-person performance opportunities for our musicians worldwide.

Why
Our monthly online competitions have reached nearly 80 countries, seen over 8000 participants and our New York annual Prize Winners recitals have been a huge success and enjoyed by all with attendance from students and music studios bringing performers and composers from all over the world.
​We have noticed the incredible enjoyment, pride and delight our musicians have experienced being recognized and honored at our in-person recitals in New York.

So why then IYMC Showcase?

• To provide an in-person performance platform for our musicians
• To provide opportunity to be recognized, honored and awarded
• To provide an opportunity to studios, schools and organizations to be recognized and promoted
• To provide opportunity for studios, schools and organizations to share in promoting musicianship and performance by providing an opportunity for their own musicians
• To provide a forum for building artistry and musicianship
• To provide an in-person experience and build community

What
IYMC Showcase will offer the opportunity to collaborate with individual music teachers, music schools and studios, music groups and organizations to present in-person recitals at venues across the world.


How

• A music teacher, school, studio or organization contacts IYMC to collaborate in presenting a recital in your local area.
• IYMC benefits by being able to offer a recital/gala event to our many musicians who have achieved in your area/country and have not been able to join us in New York due to costs, travel, etc. You, the teacher/school/studio/organization, benefit from being able to provide a gala event for your musicians where they can be recognized as part of the larger IYMC community and have an opportunity to perform with other musicians and thereby promote your school/studio/organization.
