@thecliburn announced in late January that 77 pianists — representing over 20 countries — were selected from an international pool of 340 applicants to participate in live screening auditions from March 16-22. The auditions will be held at the PepsiCo Recital Hall at Texas Christian University and are free for the public to attend. Each pianist will perform a 25-minute recital.

“For me, there’s actually a bit of an emotional attachment to it, because the very first concert I ever conducted with the @dallaswinds as a guest 32 years ago was a concert called ‘Marches in March.’ So, in a way, it’s coming full circle here,” says Jerry Junkin, Artistic Director for Dallas Winds. They’re presenting their “Marches Madness” concert on Tuesday, March 11th, 2025 in a program of… well, marches.
