No admission problems have been reported at the Tchaikovsky Competition (or Cardiff Singer of the World, for that matter), but the Van Cliburn has been forced to replace an Italian judge who encountered a visa problem.

press release:

FORT WORTH, Texas, June 18, 2015—The Cliburn announces today that Lydia Artymiw will replace Fabio Bidini on the jury of the First Cliburn International Junior Piano Competition and Festival. Mr. Bidini is unable to travel to the United States in time for the Competition due to the current global technical issues of the U.S. Bureau of Consular Affairs.

Hmm…

fabio bidini
