The Steinway Society of Massachusetts is a 501c3 non-profit that supports young artistry in Massachusetts. The Society conducts a piano competition each year that has grown into one of the most respected competitions for youths ages 9 to 18 in the region. In the past, the event was conducted over multiple weekends in May and June and culminated with a winners concert at Symphony Hall in Boston in early September.
In 2020 – the Competition went virtual due to the Coronavirus Pandemic. This page will host a series of live-stream brief programs from our Newton location starting September 17, 2020 and continuing throughout the fall.
