Since its earliest days, Min-On has encouraged the development of artistic talent worldwide through various international programs, including the Tokyo International Music Competition<\/strong> (in three categories for vocalists, conductors, and chamber ensembles), launched in 1966, and the Tokyo International Choreography Competition<\/strong>, inaugurated in 1991. Both competitions have helped foster numerous artists and have contributed to the development of music and the performing arts in Japan and throughout the world.<\/p>\n

The Tokyo International Music Competition for Conducting<\/a><\/strong>\u2014one of the three categories of the Tokyo International Music Competition\u2014was launched in 1967 and is held every three years. Since its inception, it has nurtured a great number of talented conductors and has become an internationally acclaimed competition for conducting. The most recent competition, which took place in 2009, attracted a total of 117 individual applications from 33 countries and regions. The application process for the next competition in 2012 has just begun.<\/p>\n

The Tokyo International Choreography Competition<\/strong> is one of the very few competitions of its kind in the world. The competition brings together dozens of choreographers and dance groups from around the world and provides a unique stage for the young performers of the future.<\/p>\n

Additionally, between 1969 and 1994, Min-On organized the Min-On Contemporary Music Festival<\/strong> as a part of the Music Competition to introduce contemporary works by prominent young Japanese composers. Many noted commissioned works of contemporary music were introduced to the public during this period.<\/p>\n
