Vol. XVII No. 3 November 2001 Inside the Mind of a Van Cliburn Contestant by VASSILY PRIMAKOV Vassily Primakov, a fourth-year piano student of Jerome Lowenthal, was a semifinalist in the 11th Van Cliburn Competition held last spring in Fort Worth, Tex. (He returns to Texas this month to perform a Mozart Concerto with the Texas Chamber Orchestra in Dallas and Fort Worth.) Before he left for the competition, The Juilliard Journal asked him to keep a diary, where he would record not only day-to-day events, but also his thoughts and feelings about being in the competition. Here are excerpts from that diary. May 20: The day when it all starts—practicing eight hours a day, performing, waiting, anticipating. In other words, anything that comes with a package called “Competition.” LaGuardia Airport, 1 p.m.: I run into one of the contestants—Oxana Mikhailoff, a pianist from the Manhattan School of Music not much to say to each other except “good luck.” Primakov (second from left) and his fellow competitors begin their Van Cliburn experience with a press conference on May 23.

Who are the people that I’m going to stay with? The requirement of the competition is that all of the 30 contestants stay with host families that have been chosen for us. Is it going to be a pleasant stay or a miserable one? For a moment, when a plane was landing, I felt like I wanted to vanish without a trace, to vaporize. But in a few moments I am fine—the life of an artist will begin!
