VAN CLIBURN RECITAL HALL & BASS PERFORMANCE HALL PAMELA MIA PAUL, JURY CHAIRMAN MIGUEL HARTH-BEDOYA, CONDUCTOR Inaugurated in 1999, the Cliburn International Amateur Piano Competition was the first event of its kind in the United States. Hailed by the Boston Globe as “a celebration of music, and the people who have to make music no matter what,” the contest highlights the importance of music-making in everyday life and provides a forum for non-professional pianists age 35 and older. Join us this year to cheer them on through two rounds of recitals and the culminating Final Round, when six outstanding artists will perform with the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra and Miguel HarthBedoya. They’ve been preparing for many years for this opportunity—witness every note live!
CLIBURN INTERNATIONAL JUNIOR PIANO COMPETITION & FESTIVAL THIRD EDITION I JUNE 8–17, 2023 I DALLAS, TEXAS
SMU CARUTH AUDITORIUM & MEYERSON SYMPHONY CENTER JANINA FIALKOWSKA, JURY CHAIRMAN VALENTINA PELEGGI, CONDUCTOR The Junior Competition and Festival was established in 2015 as another means for the Cliburn to use its standing and expertise to encourage tomorrow’s great artists, to provide a valuable forum for them to express themselves, and to give them an entrance to the next step of their journeys. Key ingredients are top international jurors, the media and webcast, Final Round performances with the Dallas Symphony Orchestra, and the festival atmosphere, which includes performance experience and artistic workshops—all put into place to make the program significantly useful for students with aspirations of being professional musicians.
