ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Queen Elisabeth Competition

Okay kiddo, so the queen elisabeth competition is a special music competition that happens in Belgium every year. It’s named after the queen of Belgium, Elisabeth.

It’s a competition for people who are really good at playing music, especially classical music. So, you have to be really talented to take part in it.

During the competition, the musicians play their instruments like pianos or violins, in front of a lot of people who come to watch. They show how well they can play music, and people can listen and enjoy it too.

The judges who watch and listen to the musicians are really important, because they decide who is the best musician. The winner gets a special prize – they get to play with an orchestra and get a lot of money too!

So, the queen elisabeth competition is really cool because it gives really talented musicians an opportunity to show off their skills and be rewarded for it.
