of competitions, thereis foundthe

enormouscourageand inspiration such eventsbring to a city. When wonderful young talentsgatherto expresstheir ideasand their ideals in amicable creative combat, it usually nets lasting friendships, treasured memories and strengthenedartistic determination.

As we approachour fourth competition,it is so very encouraging to all of us in Fort Worth to realize that there have been many friendshipscementedsince 1962 and many interestingand inspiring concerts played by the outstanding and talented participants and winners.

In reviewing the many rewarding moments throughout the past elevenyears,I cannot refrain from againmentioningmy dear friend, Dr. Irl Allison. Founder and President:Emeritusof the National Guild of Piano Teachers,in whose unselfishand far-visioned mind this competition was first conceived.Had it not been for his dedicated planning and the incredible and concertedefforts of the late Mrs. Grace Ward Lankford, Founder and past President of the Fort Worth Piano TeachersForum and the other sponsors,Texas Christian University, the Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce and the Fort Worth Junior League, this important project might never have materialized.

As I said before, this competition was not planned to emulate any other, though similarities are inevitable, but it endeavorsto representthe sincere desire of deeply interestedpersonswho have sought to encouragesome of the many budding musical souls to visit the beautiful state of Texas, enjoy the gracioushospitality of Fort Worth, and, I inight add, the United Statesof America.

How thrilling to realize and contemplate the success of my brain-storm of 1958 which in 1962, after a four year gestation, was finally born during which time Fort Worth was made the permanent home through the wisdom and foresight of Grace Ward Lankford who even then joined the parenthood of the movement which has now made the famed Van Cliburn International Competition truly worldwide in scope. Guild members one and all, have been proud of my vision that made them donors of their four cents yearly to raise the promised grand prize from the Piano Guild, U.S.A., of Ten Thousand dollars every four years.

As we return to Fort Worth for this fourth grand event, we are filled with gratitude to God for all the good people of the great city of Fort Worth who have helped make it our city, too. We would like everyone concerned to know our feelings of gratefulness for the full acceptance and adoption of my second big idea, the Van Cliburn, the first of which was its essentialforerunner, the Piano Guild, without which these great events of 1973 would not be possible. Hence, the beginning of the Van Cliburn Competition was in reality 44 yEars ago - 1929, when the Piano Guild was born.

It was truly prophetic when Mrs. Cliburn joined the infant Piano Guild as a Charter Member, as also did that great lady of Fort Worth, Grace Ward Lankford.

DR. & MRS. IRL ALLISON

No less essential for this year's success has been the unerring leadership of Mrs. Adelaide Fuller and all the others who have backed the Executive Committee and the Executive Secretary, as she did the 1001 daily chores absolutely necessaryfor the 19'73 Yan Cliburn Competition to come to pass. Thank you, one and all.

Your Fort Worth Citizen by Adoption,

LUIS C. VALENCIA Philippines Prof Luis C. Valencia graduated from the University of the Philippines Conservatory of Music in 1933. He took up post-graduate studies in the same institution. He furthered his studies in 1936 in Vienna. He graduated from the Vienna State Academy of Music in 1938 on a scholarship grant sponsored by the late Mr. and Mrs. Felino Cajucom.

After eight years of performing on the concert stage as a violinist-conductor during which he enriched his music background with successesin the field of the symphony and the ballet, Prof. Valencia organized the Filipino Youth Symphony Orchestra with the most promising among his students.

In 1954, Prof. Valencia received a Smith-Mundt leader grant from the U.S. State Department to observe trends in opera conducting. In 1963, he was chosen "Orchestra Conductor of the Year" by the Manila Music Lovers Society. In 1968, the Music Promotion Foundation of the Philippines sent him on a tour of Genoa, Rome, Vienna, New York, Toronto and other music capitals of the world to observe the latest methods in opera conducting.

Prof. Valencia is head of the Violin Department of the College of Music and Fine Arts of the Philippine Women's University.

Under the auspices of the First Lady, Mrs. Imelda R. Marcos, the CCP Philharmonic Orchestra was founded in April 1973 with Prof. Valencia as its training and resident conductor.

The music of Brooklyn-born Copland has been an integral part of the American scene since 1924 when his first piece was heard at a concert of the League of Composers. He began his study of theory under Rubin Goldmark, whose pupils included George Gershwin and subsequently,Copland became the first American student of Nadia Boulanger at the then newly established Fountainebleau School of Music in France.

Awards and honors have been showered on the 72year-old Copland since 1925 when he became the first composer to be awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship.

Outstanding among the numerous honorary degrees, awards, medals and memberships is the Presidential Medal of Freedom presented him by the late Lyndon B. Johnson. He won an Academy Award in 1949 for his background music for the motion picture, "The Heiress" and a Pulitzer Prize and New York Music Critics Circle Award in 1945 the following year after its premiere with the Boston Symphony Orchestra.
