I. Reimbursement of Entry Fees for Piano Competition

The Joaquín Achúcarro Foundation is pleased to announce that we have created a fund specifically for our talented students that face financial obstacles as they apply for piano competitions, which are integral for emerging artists. The Foundation believes the need for funding at the start of a pianist’s career is significant in the highly competitive world of classical music. Our goal is to underwrite entrance fees for students to enable them to participate in prestigious competitions that they may not have access to otherwise. Students of Joaquín Achúcarro are eligible to apply for reimbursements from these competitions by downloading the form attached.

All reimbursement fee applications are to be approved by Maestro Achúcarro and the Board of the Joaquín Achúcarro Foundation, and may be approved in its entirety or in part. Please complete this form and return to Lucille Chung at lucillechung@gmail.com no later than two weeks before the deadline to apply for the competition. You will need to complete a separate form for each competition you are applying for. If your application is approved, you will be notified by no later than one week before the deadline to apply for the competition. 100% of fees will be reimbursed up to $100. Anything beyond $100 will be paid back at 50%.
