One month remaining for submissions to the London International Choral Conducting Competition

Following an initial call for applications in March 2024, the founding committee of the London International Choral Conduction Competition (LICCC) has been delighted at the number of high-quality submissions received so far.

Today, we announce a final call for applications from emerging choral conductors aged 18 – 35 years from all over the world to compete in front of a distinguished international jury over the weekend of 31 October to 3 November 2024 at London’s prestigious Royal Academy of Music.

The competition, which launched to great acclaim in 2018, turns the spotlight on the next generation of choral conductors and, in the process, aims to forge stronger relationships in the international choral community.

LICCC is proud to celebrate choral music-making of the highest quality. Through its competitive element, featuring a first prize of £5,000, it will give a significant boost to exceptional conductors in the earlier stages of their career.

Hosted by premier London chamber choirs, Chantage and Coro, and joined by guest choirs, both from the UK and from overseas, including the world-renowned choir Tenebrae, the weekend festival will also feature masterclasses and a Gala Concert.

Find out more about how to apply and the format of the competition here. Applications close on Saturday, 15 June 2024.
