There was never a 'k' in Chopin's surname. Does the official name of this competition include a 'k', or is this a mistake on the part of the creator of this Wiki page? Cheers JackofOz 23:11, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)
It's written like that on the official site of the competition... it is also spelled this way in the Chopin article -> External links -> Biographies, in the Music of Poland and March Of The Black Queen article. --Missmarple 09:03, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
I don't think the one entry that says Adam Harasiewicz won in 1955 is correct. I've seen numerous websites and heard from other people that the person who won this competition in 1955 was Chinese Pianist Fou Ts'ong. There is also no article on Fou Ts'ong on Wikipedia vilmosgelb 14:55, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
The competition's official website mentions Harasiewicz as the winner. --Missmarple 16:53, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
Ah I see now, Fou Ts'ong placed in third. I misheard from before, my mistake.vilmosgelb 22:32, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
