Great Romantics Competition

Melbourne Recital Centre’s Great Romantics Competition returns in 2024.

Now in its fifteenth year, this important national competition provides a platform for young musicians and ensembles passionate about Romantic repertoire, including such luminaries as Brahms, Liszt and Schumann.

Open to soloists, duos or small ensembles, Australia’s talented young musicians will battle it out for the prestigious Elisabeth Murdoch Prize, which includes a combination of cash plus media and professional development opportunities.
