Off to Warsaw

Just as coveted as achieving a place on the winners' podium, is the chance for the American pianists to travel to Warsaw, all travel expenses paid by the Chopin Foundation. Described as an experience of a lifetime, the US laureates are supported and encouraged by an entourage from the US. Here Lady Blanka Rosenstiel catches up with US pianists Andrew Tyson and Claire Huangci. Mei-Ting Sun, the gold medalist from 2005 was also there to cheer them on.
