Jeunesses Musicales Canada

The annual campaign of the Jeunesses Musicales Canada Foundation is underway! Together, let’s bring music into their lives!

This prestigious competition, which recognizes excellence among young string players (violin, viola, cello, or double bass), is now open to all young musicians aged 25 and under, enrolled in a university or conservatory across Canada. To mark this milestone, another major change is being introduced: the winner’s scholarship has been exceptionally increased to $20,000, providing significant support to help the next generation of classical musicians advance their careers.

The JM Canada Foundation is pleased to award the 2024 Choquette-Symcox Award to pianist Meagan Milatz. The artist has been awarded a $6,000 scholarship for excellence.

The JM Canada Foundation is proud to support the career development of Quebec artists through the Fonds d’aide aux artistes (AIDA Fund). Established with financial support from the province’s Ministère de la Culture et des Communications, this fund provides artists with non-recurrent funding for specific one-off projects such as auditions, competitions, master classes, etc.

The JM Canada Foundation’s annual golf tournament is a fundraising event that brings together golf enthusiasts and music lovers to support a great cause.

Did you know that the Jeunesses Musicales Canada Foundation has a musical instrument bank? It includes three magnificent instruments made by Quebec luthiers and bow makers: two violins, a cello and the three corresponding bows.
