Liberace’s showmanship is legendary, but fewer people realized that he was classically trained for 17 years. One of the ways that we keep the Liberace legacy alive is through the Liberace Piano Competition. The Liberace Piano Competition has evolved over the past 15 years from tradition of what was originally known as the Liberace Play-a-like Contest.  
 
The Adjudicator Panel will be selected and chaired by Philip Fortenberry. One of Broadway’s most sought after pianists; Fortenberry holds a master’s degree in classical performance, is an accomplished composer and an international concert and recording artist. He holds a Master of Music degree in classical piano performance from  New Jersey  City  University and was an adjunct faculty member in the Steinhardt School of Education at  New York  University . Fortenberry judged The Liberace Competition in 2007 and 2008 and has agreed to serve in a volunteer capacity as Competition Artistic Director and Chair of the Adjudicator Panel.
