    The Mission of UIMC is:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    • To promote healthy competition.<\/li>
    • To encourage talented young musicians to build up their career and to continue their musical growth.<\/li>
    • To introduce the winners to the musical world, providing them with new connections and opportunities.<\/li>
    • To award prizes based on overall musicianship, no matter the instrument.<\/li>
    • To recognize both the technical and musical aspects of a competitor’s performance. Technical ability has reached a new height; as a result, technical perfection is often the most weighted aspect of being judged a winner in today\u2019s competitions. At UIMC, we look past technical perfection to select musicians who possess true artistry.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      We believe in God and that all the musical instruments were made to praise and worship God. Music is a beautiful tool to glorify God, and we are honored to invite musicians from all over the world, from all faiths and walks of life, to participate in our competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      1 Praise the Lord.<\/em>
      Praise God in his sanctuary;<\/em>
      praise him in his mighty heavens.<\/em>
      2 Praise him for his acts of power;<\/em>
      praise him for his surpassing greatness.<\/em>
      3 Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet,<\/em>
      praise him with the harp and lyre,<\/em>
      4 praise him with tambourine and dancing,<\/em>
      praise him with the strings and flute,<\/em>
      5 praise him with the clash of cymbals,<\/em>
      praise him with resounding cymbals.<\/em>
      6 Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.<\/em>
      Praise the Lord.<\/em>
