Khachaturian International Competition

The Khachaturian International Competition is held in Yerevan from June 6 to June 14 every year starting from 2003. For the first time it was implemented within the framework of events, dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the great composer. The competition is aimed at identifying talented young musicians in four specialties – “Piano”, “Violin”, “Cello” and "Conducting." According to the unanimous decision of all the members of the World Federation of International Music Competitions, in 2017 the Khachaturian International Competition was officially supplemented with another specialty – vocal. The project is being implemented thanks to joint efforts of the RA Ministry of Culture, “Aram Khachaturian-Competition” Cultural Foundation and Yerevan Komitas State Conservatory. The Board of Trustees includes such well-known figures as: Professor Jonathan Freeman-Attwood, Constantine Orbelian, Professor Reinhart von Gutzeit, Pavel Kogan, Elzbieta Penderecka and other significant persons. The geography of participants is very wide, it incorporates representatives from the CIS countries, U.S., Canada, Mexico, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Britain, China and many other countries. The competition jury members have included such important musicians and artists, as Grigori Zhislin (UK), Jan Ter-Merkeryan (France), Zahar Bron (Germany), Vladimir Landsman (Canada), Jasper Perrot (UK), Chun Pan (China), Boris Kushnir (Austria), Sergey Kravchenko (Russia), Alexander Sokolov (Russia), Svetlana Navasardian (Armenia), Isabel Bayrakdarian (Canada) and others. A list of these names guarantees justice and determines status and high level of the competition. The systematic and hard work of the whole competition team resulted in the election of the Khachaturian International Competition as a member of the World Federation of International Music Competitions (WFIMC), an established and prestigious musical family, members of which are such famous competitions like Tchaikovsky Competition, Queen Elizabeth Competition in Brussels, the Montreal International Musical Competition.
