The competition is an initiative of Fundación ProMusica Paraguay together with the Centro Cultural Paraguayo Americano and is sponsored by the Livieres Guggiari family. The event was created to pay tribute to the artistic figure of the scribe Lorenzo N. Livieres Banks (1927-2018), critical thinker, university professor, pianist and student of music.
