SENIOR AWARDS
Applications for 2025 Senior Awards are now open!
Instrumental soloists (21-27 years of age) and chamber ensembles (average age 21-27 years), are invited to apply for financial assistance from the Hattori Foundation for projects taking place between 1 September 2025 and 31 August 2026.
Awards may be offered for:
While the Trustees may use their discretion to consider all styles of classical music, please note that the Hattori Foundation’s focus is the support of musicians of western classical music. The Trustees of the Hattori Foundation also consider whether from the applicants there is a performer ready to benefit from the challenge and professional exposure of a performance with a leading London orchestra. If so, we seek to create an opportunity for that performance to happen (see past debut prize award winners here). |
The deadline for 2025 applications is the close of business on Wednesday 30 April 2025.
The selection process for awards will be held in two stages, the first by completed application form with online recordings (either audio-only or video), and then audition by invitation over the weekend of 7/8 June 2025 in London. All applicants will be advised whether or not they have passed to the second stage. All correspondence and completed application forms and references should be sent to:
