WFIMC 2026 YEARBOOK

THE GURWITZ INTERNATIONAL PIANO COMPETITION San Antonio, Texas, USA

WFIMC Member since 2019

Each competition occurs every four years in San Antonio, TX, USA. Along with standard concert repertoire, pianists demonstrate their versatility by performing music rooted in their native cultures, works by Spanish and Latin composers celebrating San Antonio’s cultural makeup, and a commissioned work with chamber ensemble. A final piano concerto round with full symphony orchestra concludes each competition. Expanding the contestants’ view beyond a traditional classical mindset connects this next generation of award-winning pianists to a global audience as they develop their career and take the world stage. Today’s world is more interconnected than ever before. By exposing pianists to world music, The Gurwitz reflects the very tapestry of this inspired art form.
