According to Korean media reports, M Management in Korea will serve as the exclusive co-organizer of the Korea preliminary round for the 2026 Second Khachaturian International Youth Music Competition. Built on the professional system of the Khachaturian International Competition, a member competition of the World Federation of International Music Competitions (WFIMC), the event aims to provide young Korean musicians with a formal pathway to the international stage.
The Korea preliminary round is scheduled to take place from August 12 to 14 at SCC Hall in Seocho-gu, Seoul. It will include piano, violin, viola, cello and chamber music. Registration will close on July 31, and selected contestants will travel to Beijing in October to take part in the global final, performing alongside outstanding young musicians from around the world.
The reports also noted that the 2026 edition will offer substantial prizes, access to collector-level instruments, recording opportunities and international performance promotion. Beyond the competition itself, these resources are designed to support the long-term growth of young artists through a more complete international pathway.
The Korean organizer also plans to launch the M International Music Festival in 2027, extending the competition into a broader platform for arts education and international exchange.
