About the Competition
The BIOMC is one of the most important events in the international online music competition environment. We aim to create a unique platform for musicians of all ages and from all over the world to showcase their creativity and talent.

Risk-free competition
The Brahms International Online Music Competition is based on the currently very common new “risk-free competition” formula. The First Round is free of charge. Only those who make it to the Final Round are required to pay an administrative fee. This has been designed to reduce the financial risk associated with entering without the guarantee of a prize. This ensures that all Participants who decide to take part in the Final Round are guaranteed a prize.

How to apply
To register for the Competition, applicants are required to complete the application form and submit the link to their recording. The recordings will be screened out in the Preliminary Round. The top candidates will be invited to the Finals.
