Gilmore Young Artist Award
Every two years, the Gilmore Young Artist Award is presented to promising pianists below age 23. An anonymous selection committee receives and evaluates nominations by music professionals from around the world. As with the Gilmore Artist Award, the nominees are not aware that they are being considered. Awardees receive a $15,000 stipend and another $10,000 to commission an original piano composition that they will have the exclusive right to perform for one year.[7]
The award was first granted in 1991. 38 pianists have received a Gilmore Young Artists Award.
