2024 Young Artist Competition for Piano – Repertoire List

2024 Ensemble 212 Young Artist Competition Repertoire List

Young Park, Director, Ensemble 212 Young Artist Competition
Yoon Jae Lee, Artistic Director, Ensemble 212


Important! Please use the specified editions where listed whenever possible!

Repertoire is dependent on two major factors: instrumentation (the size of orchestra) and availability of performance materials (orchestral parts). Certain works listed below may be performed with reduced woodwind and brass sections but will not effect the overall production of the video. Most works by 20th & 21st century composers (e.g. Barber, Bartok, Copland, Prokofiev, Ravel, Shostakovich, etc.) require orchestral forces that larger than Ensemble 212’s available roster and/or are only available through rental from the publisher. As a result, these works are excluded from our repertoire list as they are not feasible for us to perform. If a work you wish to perform is not listed, it may be due to either or both factors. Please contact us at ensemble212@gmail.com regarding any works that are not listed below.
