This year&#8217;s competition attracted 20 emerging pianists from across Australia.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Winnie Su discovered the piano at the age of 7 and was awarded her LMusA by the age of 14 as a student of Margaret Hair. She is currently completing her undergraduate at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester, England, under the guidance of Graham Scott. Winnie made her first concerto soloist appearance at 13, performing Beethoven\u2019s <em>Piano Concerto No 1<\/em>, followed by a performance of Grieg\u2019s <em>Piano Concerto in A minor,<\/em> the following year.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSydney Eisteddfod connected me with many talented, like-minded individuals, some of whom became my dearest friends. In a way, we almost grew up together through our meetings at Sydney Eisteddfod, and it is such a pleasure to experience the fruit of their hard work every time we meet. More than just a supportive environment however, I find the Eisteddfod to be a valuable learning opportunity as I listen to the peers and competitors before and after my turn.\u00a0\u00a0It is an honour to be able to gain valuable feedback and insight from the respectable and experienced adjudicators at Sydney Eisteddfod.\u00a0\u00a0My relationship with the stage and the piano is continually shifting, and I am grateful to Sydney Eisteddfod for providing a platform for young artists like me to explore ourselves\u201d\u00a0 says Winnie.<\/p>\n<p>The other finalists, Maryann Gou from Auburn, Oscar Wong from Gold Coast QLD, and Joshua Han from Beaumont Hills, each received $500, sponsored by The Estate of the late John Allison AM.
