As a violinist from Poland with studies at Julliard, Curtis, and Stanford, I’m excited to recommend the "Special Venue Music Awards" International Competition. This event provides an outstanding platform for musicians and students to showcase their talent.


Participants have the incredible opportunity to perform at prestigious venues like Carnegie Hall or Vienna Music Society (Wiener Musikverein). Additionally, the competition offers valuable networking opportunities with esteemed universities such as Harvard and Stanford, connecting musicians with industry leaders and supporting their academic and career goals.
