Van Cliburn Piano Competition

26. Mai - 11. Juni 2017

Every four years, the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition brings together approximately thirty young musicians from around the world to celebrate their gifts and compete for a wide variety of prizes, including generous cash awards and numerous concert engagements. The Competition is a rigorous and comprehensive examination of every facet of each contestant's musicianship and technical proficiency. All competitors are heard in recital; twelve semifinalists play new works and perform chamber music; and six finalists perform two concerti with the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra under the direction of a major international conductor. It is the task of the distinguished jury to ultimately select the medalists.
