The social project "Soy clave!" (I'm Key!), promoted by the Maria Canals International Piano Competition Association, with the support of the Occidente Foundation, reinforces its commitment to offering a real opportunity to vulnerable children to engage with music through the piano.

The goal is to awaken vocations, but also to foster confidence, creativity, and, most importantly, to provide opportunities for those who lack them.
