The 2024 Steinway Society of Massachusetts Piano Competition

The 2024 competition will happen during three in-person rounds on three weekends in April. We are also introducing a new competition alternative called the Artist Evaluation Tier.  Both tiers will have an enrollment cap so that we can ensure a quality experience for all.   This year’s competition will again consist of Three Divisions. Participants in each Division will perform LIVE at M. Steinert and Sons Newton Location in April 2024. All participants must compete in the division corresponding to their age as of April 1, 2024. To allow broader participation, we are initially asking each teacher to limit their enrollment to two students per division
