The Eurovision Young Musicians 1998 was the ninth edition of the Eurovision Young Musicians, held at Konzerthaus in Vienna on 4 June 1998.[1] Organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and host broadcaster Österreichischer Rundfunk (ORF), musicians from eight countries participated in the televised final. Austria and broadcaster ORF previously hosted the contest at Musikverein in 1990. A total of eighteen countries took part in the competition therefore a semi-final was held two days earlier. All participants performed a classical piece of their choice accompanied by the Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Dennis Russell Davies.[1]

Slovakia made their début, while Croatia and Sweden returned to the contest. Three countries withdrew from the 1998 contest; they were Belgium, France, and Russia.[1]

The non-qualified countries were Cyprus, Estonia, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain and Switzerland. Lidia Baich of host country Austria won the contest, with Croatia and United Kingdom placing second and third respectively.[2] Baich had represented Austria at the previous edition in 1996, placing second.
