This week on Sunday Arts the Sydney International Piano Competition of Australia (SIPCA), held every four years, takes centre stage as the recital finalists perform in what is recognised as one of the world's great piano competitions.

SIPCA attracts more applications than any other major piano competition in the world and features outstanding representation from many countries.

Major piano manufacturers provide new concert grand pianos and technical support staff for the international auditions in 12 major cities worldwide as well as for the competition itself.
SIPCA is presented in association with the University of Sydney and the ABC. This ninth SIPCA runs from 16 July to August 2.

All 27 concerts will be broadcast live on ABC Classic FM.

Sunday Arts will be repeated on ABC2 – Sunday, August 24 at 7:30pm
