For now I'm just focusing on understanding musical structure, such as sonata form and identifying themes and variations, for example.

    Because judges nowadays tend to pick hot young prodigies with flashy techniques that are easily marketable, rather than fully developed and mature rounded musicians. Yunchan Lim is an exception because his playing (and his personality) has the depth and wisdom of an old soul. There's basically no point in even thinking about winning a competition if you're older than early 20's... though it is good for exposure and for bios. It also helps if you have connections with the judges. Judges can't give scores to those who they've taught or had connections with but there is nothing stopping them from marking OTHER candidates down.
