Established in 1962, the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition—“one of the most prestigious contests in classical music” (The New York Times, 2022)—remains committed to its original ideals: 1. launching the careers of emerging artists and supporting them with comprehensive, personalized career management and concert bookings; and 2. sharing the transformative powers of music with a wide global audience. The last edition in 2022 amassed more than 60 million views in 177 countries, making it one of the most-watched classical music events in history.
