Celebrating 50 Years of Musical Excellence

 

Crescendo Music is thrilled to announce our second annual competition, proudly hosted at our brand-new Performance Hall in Myaree!

This event marks a milestone for our family-run business, whose roots in music have always been deeply grounded in music education. Over the past 50 years, our success has been made possible through the unwavering support of local music teachers, and we are excited to give back by creating a platform that celebrates talent, promotes musical growth, and fosters community collaboration.

This August, we invite passionate music educators, music schools, and their students to join us in this exciting event — not just to compete, but to challenge themselves, inspire others, and deepen their appreciation for musical performance.

The event will take place between 23nd August - 13th September, with categories organised by performance level. External professional adjudicators will be present to score each performance and provide feedback. Winners will be awarded for first, second, and third place, with trophies, gifts, certificates, and gift vouchers to be given out.

Please read the terms and conditions listed below for the event. We look forward to seeing all participants, parents, and educators in our first annual Crescendo Music Piano Competition.
