Paul Lewis, chairman of the 2025 Cliburn jury, is one of the foremost interpreters of the Central European piano repertoire, his performances and recordings of Beethoven and Schubert receiving universal critical acclaim. He was awarded CBE in 2016 for his services to music, and the sincerity and depth of his musical approach have won him fans around the world.

In this concert, 4 of 12 competitors will each perform a Mozart concerto with Carlos Miguel Prieto and the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra.

The Cliburn is pleased to announce the new Gold Medal Patron premium subscription packages for the seventeenth edition of its flagship Van Cliburn International Piano Competition, taking place May 21–June 7, 2025, at Van Cliburn Concert Hall at TCU and Bass Performance Hall, in Fort Worth, Texas, USA.

These five gold medalists run the gamut in terms of personality and performance style. That no two of them sound alike is one of the Cliburn's proudest claims, and their artistic voices paved the way to even brighter futures.

In the spirit of the Halloween season, the Cliburn will present free Community Concerts featuring spooky sounds October 31 and November 2, 2024 in Fort Worth and Dallas.
