In 2017, Greg and I served as the co-hosts of the entire Fifteenth Van Cliburn Piano Competition webcast (produced by Medici TV). It was an intensive, memorable, and supremely gratifying experience. This year, The Cliburn is presenting a new format for the webcast, tripling the size of the production team and offering more hosts, content, and in-depth coverage. Greg and I will serve as the behind-the-scenes correspondents throughout the competition, and I will be sitting at the main anchor desk as Buddy Bray’s co-host for the final round!
From The Cliburn’s press release:
The entire sixteenth edition of the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition (June 2–18, 2022) will be streamed live online from the first note to the announcement of the new 2022 gold medalist.
The Cliburn was a pioneer in the early days of webcasting, and it continues to innovate and expand this vital program as a global leader in the field; this year becoming the first classical music competition in the world to broadcast in 4K HDR.
The 2022 Competition webcast promises an even higher level of quality of sound and picture; a compelling, immersive program around the performances that gives viewers behind-the-scenes access and insightful commentary; and the widest selection of ways to watch of any classical music competition in history.
Viewership is expected to top 10 million.
