Composer:
Frederic Chopin

Artist(s):
Yuja Wang

Background: Competition wins had been second nature to Yuja Wang since her childhood, and she trails strings of prizes from China, Japan, Spain and Germany. She has a flair for virtuosic transcriptions, but in the end, the idea of a debut album of encore pieces was sidelined in favour of weightier repertoire.

The daughter of a dancer and a percussionist, Yuja Wang was home-schooled until the age of seven, after which she attended school in the morning and the Beijing Conservatory in the afternoon until she left for Calgary Canada as a 14 year old and the commencement of her studies at the Curtis Institute in Philadelphia the following year.

- Jul-2009 4 star BBC Music Mag. - Aug-2009 Gramophone Editor's Choice 'This is a most impressive recording debut, expressive and accomplished (even the most difficult fingerwork holds no terrors for her). Most immediate is the fact that, without any gimmicks or ego, she establishes real musical charisma.'
