Competition Jury
The Cliburn proudly presents the jury for the Seventeenth Van Cliburn International Piano Competition. The jury comprises some of the best performing pianists of our time. Each jury member actively shapes the classical music landscape through their performance and instruction.
In addition to serving on the jury, Gabriela Montero has been commissioned to compose a new work for the 2025 Cliburn Competition, to be performed by all 30 competitors. This marks the third time that the composer of the commissioned work will also serve on the jury.
