THE YOUNG ARTISTS SERIES
2009-2010 Season

presents...
Prize Winners and Finalists of
The New York International Piano Competition

Throughout the year, young artists are given the rare and valuable opportunity to hone their performance skills at numerous venues. This is probably one of the most crucial and long-lasting benefits associated with the competition, a root cause for the event’s genesis.

The emerging pianists perform at the following venues in partnership with The Stecher and Horowitz Foundation:
