The mathematician John MacBain is best known for developing algorithms to minimize bias at this type of event. An event of this type is named for a local of Fort Worth, Texas, who received a ticker-tape parade after “conquering” an inaugural event of this type in Russia. In a 1980 scandal, the unconventional Yugoslav Ivo Pogorelić was declared “a genius” at one of these events by Martha Argerich upon resigning her position. One of the most prestigious events of this type launched the career of 18-year-old Yundi Li and awards a prize sponsored by Polish Radio. “International” events of this type that occur every four to five years are named after Van Cliburn, Tchaikovsky, and Chopin. For 10 points, name these events where young classical musicians progress through a series of recitals attended by a jury. ■END■
