What began in 2020 as an online piano competition during the pandemic now has a firm non-profit framework: since 2025, the competition, masterclasses, Essential Classes and concerts have been organised by EUPLAYY gGmbH. The company was founded in Munich in 2024 by Swen Fischer and Prof. Fedele Antonicelli, who hold equal shares; its managing director is Swen Fischer.
According to its articles of association, EUPLAYY gGmbH promotes art and culture as well as education. Its focus is on young musicians – children from the age of three, teenagers and young adults. Any surplus may only be used for these purposes.
How we pursue these aims
- music competitions, also online
- concerts, also in digital form
- cash and material prizes for outstanding young musicians
- masterclasses, also online
- audio and video recordings that can be made available to the public
- music education, for example music theory courses and talks, especially for children and young people
- bringing young musicians together
- building an examination board as a sound basis for musical training, also as preparation for university studies, in cooperation with music universities
