This happened in July 2010 and found this off a website
The Cincinnati-based World Piano Competition announced the winners for its Young Artist Division in an awards ceremony held July 1 at the Aronoff Center. Out of 48 students, ages 5 to 17, who competed, it appears that every youngster in each of 12 categories took home a prize, ranging from $25 to $100.
Here are some highlights:
Sunny Huang, 15, of Novi, Michigan, a student of Faye Mao, won the grand prize of $1,500 in the solo divison, levels 9-12.
Yehan Chen, 16, of Plainfield, Ind., a student of Karen Taylor, won the grand prize of $1,500 for the concerto division, levels 9-12, and a recommended performance with members of the World Symphony Orchestra (to be led by the CSO’s Ken Lam).
Other grand prizes went to ME!!!!!!, student of Nina Polonsky ($500), and co-winners David Du and Suvir Mirchandani, who each won $250.
