Nour Ayadi was born in Casablanca, Morocco, and began playing the piano at the age of 6. At age 17 she was admitted to the Conservatoire of Paris and to the École Normale de Musique. She moved to Paris to pursue her musical career and to complete her final school year and a baccalaureate, graduating with distinction. Alongside her budding career as a soloist, Nour completed her master’s in public affairs at Sciences Po Paris, where she was involved in cultural projects at the French National Assembly, the UN in Geneva, and UNICEF. In 2023, she was named laureate of the Fondation Gautier Capuçon.
Nour quickly made her mark in France: at the age of 20, she was awarded the prestigious Prix Cortot. That same year, she was a laureate of Virtuoses du coeur (first prize) and in 2017 she was awarded first prize at the Baku International Classical Music Competition. In 2016 she won the Grand Prize at the HRH Lalla Meryem International Piano Competition in Morocco. The Prix Cortot gave her the opportunity to perform at several festivals: the International Piano Festival of La Roque d’Anthéron, the Folles Journées de Nantes, the Glafsforden Musik Festival in Sweden, the Chopin-Nohant Festival, the Solistes à Bagatelles, and the Pianissimes.
