The Canadian International Organ Competition
The 6th edition of the Canadian International Organ Competition took place from October 17th to 27th, 2024. The CIOC welcomed 9 talented young organists from 6 different countries to Montreal as they competed on some of Canada’s finest organs for the chance to win prizes totalling more than $100,000 CAD.

- Johannes Skoog (1st Prize, Noël Spinelli Prize, Gérard Coulombe Bach Prize)
- Henry Webb (2nd Prize, Richard Bradshaw Audience Prize, Raymond Daveluy Prize presented by the RCCO)
