For young pop and jazz musicians
Surprising Stars is an online music competition for students or recent pop and jazz graduates from music conservatories all over Europe. It is a fantastic opportunity for young musicians to build up an audience and have a chance at gaining public recognition.

Candidates have been challenged to make a surprising one-minute music video. The submitted music videos are available to watch on the Surprising Stars website and YouTube. A jury of music experts as well as the public will vote for their favourite music video. The final candidate will win a solo performance with the infamous soul jazz singer China Moses and the world-leading pop and jazz orchestra the Metropole Orkest in the Netherlands in May 2018!
