For the Satori competition, we have been very lucky to have a judging pool composed of some of the best educators and musicians around the world. Every year, our judges are alternately selected from this pool to maintain fairness and consistency. We thank sincerely to those who have expressed their willingness to serve as judges. We are temporarily suspending the call for new judges this year as the pool has reached the maximum capacity. If there are new vacancies, we will announce it in the future.
