Founded in 1961 by Susan Wadsworth, The Young Concert Artists International Auditions differ from a competition, as there are no rankings, and any number of winners can be selected – with each candidate competing against a standard of excellence, not each other.

Previous recipients include: Pinchas Zukerman, Ida Kavafian, Chee-Yun, Emanuel Ax, Murray Perahia and Anne Akiko Meyers – and VC Artists Paul Huang, Bella Hristova, Benjamin Beilman, Ray Chen, Stephen Warts, Zlatomir Fung, Edgar Moreau, Xavier Foley, SooBeen Lee and Zlatomir Fung.

This year's final round jury comprises: Susan Wadsworth (Chair), vocalists Peggy Bouveret and Randall Scarlata, violinists Koichiro Harada and Chee-Yun, pianists Jerome Lowenthal and Ilana Vered, violist Scott Nickrenz, cellist Fred Sherry and trumpeter/conductor Gerard Schwarz.
