American pianist Anne-Marie McDermott has unfortunately had to withdraw from the Jury of the 2025 Dublin International Piano Competition for personal reasons. Anne-Marie was a member of the Jury of the 2022 Competition and the Competition Administration is saddened that she cannot now be with us.
However, we are very pleased that Irish pianist – and a former member of the DIPC Jury – has agreed to take her place at short notice. The DIPC thanks Hugh for his willingness to re-arrange his plans and step up to the plate. He will join colleagues from Japan (Noriko Ogawa), France (Michel Béroff), Hungary (Dénes Várjon), UK / Australia (Piers Lane) and USA/Ireland (Katie McGuinness) to form a truly international jury, chaired by the DIPC’s Artistic Director Finghin Collins.
