Artistic Directors Eva Wasserman-MargolisElizabeth Crawford, and Diana Haskell are proud to present The International Clarinetist Corona Competition 2020 (ICCC). Conceived as a support mechanism for professional clarinetists ages 25-40, we believe this virtual competition will provide hope to those who were financially disenfranchised when the world stopped for COVID-19.

ICCC is a true grassroots effort. The Artistic Directors stand in solidarity with our clarinet colleagues around the world. We will donate our time to arranging this virtual competition. There is no registration fee for contestants and no payment for jurors and coordinators. Jurors will include world-renowned artists and educators who agree to participate for no fee.

International Clarinetist Corona Competition:
—offers an incentive to achieve high-performance goals
—encourages wider participation by offering prizes in several genres
—offers tangible and intangible prizes that will further aspirations

ICCC includes three categories: Classical, Jazz, and Klezmer. Competitors will submit an application and a high-quality video recording of music from a list of works decided upon by the jury for each genre.

ELIGIBILITY

Clarinetists ages 25 through 40 years of age as of February 1, 2021. Applicants may apply to only one of the three categories (Klezmer, Jazz, or Classical) of the Competition.
