Chelsea Wang, piano

Praised by The New York Times as an “excellent young pianist,” Chelsea Wang has appeared as a soloist and chamber musician across North America, Europe, and Asia, performing at venues including Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center, and the Isabella Stewart Gardner.

A prizewinner in numerous international competitions, she made her orchestral debut at age six and has since performed with orchestras including the Fort Worth Symphony and Des Moines Symphony.

An active chamber musician, Wang has appeared with the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center and at festivals such as Music@Menlo, Ravinia, and Music Academy of the West. A graduate of the Curtis Institute of Music, she studied with Meng-Chieh Liu and Ignat Solzhenitsyn and received the Sergei Rachmaninoff Award. She also holds degrees from Peabody Conservatory and is currently pursuing a doctorate at Northwestern University.
