The NYFC Competition has been recognizing rising artists for more than four decades. Previous winners have gone on to distinguished solo careers and positions in major orchestras, and they teach in top conservatories and colleges. Flutists ages 18 to 27 are eligible to compete in the annual New York Flute Club Competition. The 2025 NYFC Competition will be held on Sunday, March 30, 2025, with applications for entry due by March 1, 2025. The preliminary round will be held at the Manhattan School of Music (130 Claremont Avenue, NYC), with the final round held at the New York Flute Fair later the same day (at the Allen-Stevenson School, 132 East 78th Street, NYC). The winners receive a cash honorarium and will be presented in the Competition Winners Recital on Sunday, April 27, 2025 at 5:30 pm at the Theatre at St. Jean (150 East 76th Street, NYC).
