Originally posted by TS:  Haha...cool. Have you guys checked out the prizes for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc; they're pretty "hefty". First Prize
Nancy Lee and Perry R. Bass Gold Medal
Cash award of $20,000
Performance attire provided by Neiman Marcus
International concert tours and career management for the three concert seasons following the Competition
Compact disc recording on the harmonia mundi label
Contribution towards domestic and international air travel on American Airlines during the three-year concert tours
Silver trophy cup And I think it's really cool how all the finalists get the "International concert tours and career management for the three concert seasons". [/b] I thought I heard that everyone got US tours except the gold medal winner who got an international tour.

Has anyone been able to get the audio files on the dfw.com multimedia section to work? If so, what software and what version # were you using to open it?
The files are listed as being Realmedia files when I try and open them, but then I get a message saying that Realplayer doesn't have the software available to play them and that no downloads of the required software are available.

The audio files on that site are just mp3. I downloaded most of them. You can open them using iTunes.

Alternatively, it looks like their streaming multimedia page is up again at http://www.dfw.com/multimedia/dfw/news/cliburn/cliburn.html (click at the bottom left where it says "listen to every note of each performance", though as of yet only the recitals are up there). It seems to be working much better than last week.

Sorry to raise this from the dead, but they stopped hosting the recital recordings online, and I'm still missing a few. I need 4 of the semifinal recitals and 3 of the final recitals. If one of you who downloaded everything could kindly PM me...

Originally posted by TS: Haha.. just looking through the past winners at the Cliburn: Sixth Van Cliburn International Piano Competition (1981)
1. André-Michel Schub, USA
2. (tied) Panayis Lyras, USA
Santiago Rodriguez, USA
4. Jeffrey Kahane, USA
5. Christopher O’Riley, USA
6. Da Ming Zhu, People’s Republic of China Was this because of the Cold War or something, or were the US competitors actually good enough to clean house? If so, good show. [/b] The first prize for this year was a mistake, IMHO. He is a chamber musician not a great soloist. It's no surprise we do not hear him much since.
