“After spending a few years on hiatus from competitions to figure out what kind of artistic profile and career I wished to have, I decided the first competition I would attend was Honens. It was so different from any other competition I had come across. With its unique program, ethos of the Complete Artist, and unparalleled support for the Prize Laureate, I felt this was an opportunity I could not miss. Winning was, of course, a dream come true.”
—Nicolas Namoradze, 2018 Honens Prize Laureate
The Honens prize offers its Gold, Silver, and Bronze Laureates a cash prize of $100,000 CAD, $40,000 CAD, and $20,000 CAD, respectively, and a comprehensive, three-year Artist Development Program. The program, based on a needs assessment and tailored to each artist, may include debut recitals in career-building markets; assistance in securing worldwide artist management; coaching and mentorship; media training; opportunities to experiment with programming and collaborations for specific audiences; residencies and special projects; and the production, release, and distribution of professional recordings. The Honens Gold Prize is one of the world’s largest of its kind.
