Rubato Compatition in Oxford

Oxford, AL – The City of Oxford, Alabama, will host its inaugural Rubato International Piano Competition on August 8–13, 2022.

The competition will attract young talent, ages 12-26, from prestigious schools and universities, and conservatories throughout the United States and around the globe.

The innovative ‘Audience Favorite’ category will let you vote for your favorite artist in each musical style.

The tremendous opportunities provided by this event will open doors for the students traveling from abroad to our great state and for the Oxford community alike. This competition will be a platform which will endure and expand our community’s arts appreciation, enriching the lives of all who participate.

On Friday and Saturday night, performers will have the opportunity to show off their skills in front of an audience and the jury. The Semifinals on Friday are free admission, but a ticket is still required to attend this event. Tickets for the Finals on Saturday are $15, or $8 for students.
