Mission
The World Piano Competition’s mission is to promote and celebrate the art of classical piano music, inspiring artists and audiences.
We believe in making a change. We believe that inviting world-class competitors to Cincinnati is not only good for the city, but good for the communities that call it “home.” We believe that there is cause and need to celebrate this art, that educating our community in its history and practice is relevant and beneficial, and that its promotion is a non-negotiable that we are proud to pursue. We believe in classical piano music, its future, and our supporting role in its flourish and eminence.
Your generosity in helping us achieve these goals is crucial to the mission of The World Piano Competition. To make a contribution online, please click here. For inquiries about volunteering or sponsorships, please contact wpc@cincinnatiwpc.org.
