About the artist Yuja Wang

Born in Beijing in 1987, Yuja Wang began piano lessons at the age of six, before studying with Professors Ling Yuan and Zhou Guangren at Beijing’s Central Conservatory of Music. In 2001 Yuja received the Special Jury Award at the first Japan Sendai International Music Competition, where she was the youngest competitor. After her North American debut in 2005, performing Beethoven’s Concerto no. 4 with the National Arts Centre Orchestra under Pinchas Zukerman in Ottawa, the Canadian press declares: "A star is born". In 2006 Yuja Wang made her debut with the New York Philharmonic and the symphony orchestras of Chicago, Japan’s NHK, San Francisco and Houston. She also received the prestigious Gilmore Young Artist Award. “Yuja Wang plays a rare, frankly exquisite combination of feeling and delicacy . . . she has a dazzling way of lightening even the heaviest textures . . . Yuja Wang is already among the most brilliantly gifted of today’s pianists.” - Gramophone, July 2010
