Richard and Connie Manuel, Mal and Barbara Mixon, and George and Rosalyn Sievila were unanimously elected Honorary Directors of the Cleveland International Piano Competition at the Annual Meeting in December. The action was taken to honor their remarkable services and contributions to the Competition over the course of many years of dedicated support. All of us at the CIPC extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Manuels, the Mixons, and the Sievilas – the Competition would not exist as it does today without them!
