For the past 11 years, the Montreux Jazz Festival has organised piano, guitar and voice competitions. The winners meet during the following winter in the magical Alpine setting of Balik Studio, where they compose a repertoire and record a CD. This cultural exchange is then completed by a tour of European summer jazz festivals, including Montreux.

The participants combine their different musical approaches and influences, with range from classical music to jazz improvisation and traditional folk culture, thereby contributing to the constant evolution of jazz.

The level of the piano competition was so high this year that the jury choose two winners : Beka Gochiashvili - 13 year old, from Georgia - and Isfar Sarabsky  from Azerbaijan. The American Aubrey Logan won the voice competition and Roland Balogh, from Hungary, the guitar competition.
