AIMA International Vocal Competition

The AIMA International Vocal Competition is an annual music competition organized by the American International Music and Arts Association, aimed at promoting vocal art and inspiring young singers around the world to engage in their artistic performance careers.

 

Music has the ability to leave people with the widest and most free space for imagination and creation. It can convey great emotion in just a few powerful notes. There is, perhaps, no greater expression of the human spirit. For this reason, The AIMA International Vocal Competition honors those who bring imagination and inspiration into the world.

 

AIMA International Vocal Competition focuses not only on technical skills, quality of sound, but also articulation and the artistic realization in performing. We believe, one interpretation will never be the same as the next as long as the imagination also remains inexhaustible.
