The World Concerto Tour (WCT) is dedicated to offering young, talented musicians the invaluable experience of performing full concertos with a symphony orchestra—an essential step in their development into mature, professional musicians. By working alongside experienced conductors and orchestras, our program helps bridge the gap between education and real-world performance, giving young artists the opportunity to showcase their talents on an international stage.

Founded by Cliburn Gold Medalist Stanislav Ioudenitch, WCT thrives on his deep commitment to each participant. Stanislav provides daily private lessons, public masterclasses, and individualized coachings, ensuring that every artist receives the guidance and support needed to prepare for their performances.

The World Concerto Tour addresses an important gap in the classical music world: the lack of opportunities for young artists to be introduced to the broader music-loving community. Many talented musicians do not have access to significant performance platforms, and their potential often goes unrecognized. WCT provides a unique opportunity for these young artists to be seen and heard, while also equipping them with the practical experience and mentorship needed to prepare for a successful career in music.

The inaugural 2019 WCT in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, was a resounding success, drawing over 3,000 attendees to the Grand Hall of the State Conservatory, where 11 young artists from nine countries performed with the National Symphony Orchestra of Uzbekistan. This celebration of classical music as a force for goodwill became a highlight of the cultural landscape in Tashkent.

Building on this success, the program expanded to Volgograd, Russia, in 2020, followed by performances in Baku, Azerbaijan. With each new edition, the World Concerto Tour continues to grow, providing a platform for even more young talents from around the world to be showcased.
