assignment for upper school students:
The Van Cliburn Foundation is holding a piano competition on YouTube for amateur pianists 35 and older, and you have the opportunity to help decide who will win. The winner of the YouTube competition will have their entry fee waived and will compete in the 2011 International Competition.
In order to vote, you will need to register on the Van Cliburn website, and you will be emailed an online ballot to vote for your favorite pianist. The voting will take place May 1-15.
You can view the competitors’ videos on their channel on YouTube here. Today when I checked, there were only 2 pianists who’ve submitted videos so far, but the deadline is April 30th, so hopefully there will be more soon.
You can hear more about the guidelines for the pianists here:
