Does anyone know how to watch Chopin competition 2021 online? Does it typically broadcast live on the competition's website? It is coming up pretty soon.
Thanks, Osho

Four thousand people currently viewing the stream. Cool!
Edit: sorry, I came in at the very end of the morning session; this one is done! Afternoon session begins (I believe) at 5:00 PM Warsaw time (GMT +2).

Anyone kind of get bored by this? They are all playing almost the same programs. I swear if I have to hear the c# minor op 27 nocturne again I will scream…. The evening session tonight is either the 1st ballade or f minor fantasy.

I've been paying attention but I think I'm done until the actual competition. Everyone plays almost the exact same way, and like you said - almost all same repertoire. I'm crossing my fingers for a brilliant personality to emerge this year. Will we get an Argerich, a Pogorelich, a Bunin? Heck, I'll take a Yundi Li. Just don't let it be 2005 - 2015 again. Please...
There have been 36 competitors so far. The top 10 pieces are the following:
1. Ballade #4 -- 9 people 1. Barcarolle -- 9 people 3. Mazurka Op 59 No. 1 -- 8 people 3. Etude Op 10/8 -- 8 people 3. Nocturne 62/1 6. Etude 10/12 -- 7 people 6. Etude 25/10 -- 7 people 6. Etude 25/11 -- 7 people 6. Fantasy in F minor -- 7 people 6. Mazurka 59/3 - 7 people 6. Nocturne 27/1 - 7 people
So half the field is playing either Barcarolle or 4th Ballade. Of the remainder, a quarter are playing the Fantasy.
hmm I see a repertoire requirement which explains certain things, but no one has opted to play op 10/2 yet.

Have you checked the "Calendar" link on the website?
It lists each candidate, the date of their performance in the Preliminary round, and the programme they are scheduled to play right through to the end date of the Preliminary on 23 July.
