Chopin Foundation of the United States

To fulfill its mission, the Chopin Foundation works with schools of music, music teachers, and other music organizations to find the best young classical pianists performing today. The Foundation promotes their careers through concert opportunities, an annual scholarship program, competition prizes, and by connecting the pianists with other presenters. A series of public concerts is presented each year in Miami-Dade County, where the annual Chopin for All FREE concerts are enjoyed by thousands of audience members each year. 

For the last 45 years, the Chopin Foundation and its flagship event, the National Chopin Piano Competition, have earned a respected reputation in Miami and in classical music circles around the world. The first Competition took place in 1975, and the next National Chopin Piano Competition will take place in Miami in 2025.
