At least that's what the Los Angeles Times thought when, in a review, they said the 29-year-old Californian "is technically endowed to do just about anything she wants on a keyboard ... (she puts on) a powerful show." The Washington Post, meanwhile, has praised Chen's "note-perfect technique and ... effervescent Chopin." Chen will perform in Olympia on Wednesday as part of The Washington Center for the Performing Arts' "21st Century Masters" program, which spotlights young classical musicians. Born in Los Angeles to Chinese parents, Chen spoke no English during the first years of her life. She began taking piano lessons at 4, just as she was learning her second language.

back to Events YOUNG PIANIST'S BEETHOVEN COMPETITION Brochure for 2005 competition (pdf) 2005 Finalists and winners Review of the masterclass Philosophy and Procedures The Young Pianist's Beethoven competition was founded in 1987 by Celia Méndez, a San José private piano teacher, with the purpose of being an artistic learning experience, a pedagogical tool for California High School students in the process of understanding the interpretation of Beethoven's piano sonatas. Consistent with this purpose, the "prize" of the competition is participation in a master class given to the three finalists by an internationally renown artist. Added awards are performing opportunities­such as the one offered in the past by the "Grand Piano" television program and presently by the Steinway Society The Bay Areaand a monetary prize, this last one having only an ancillary character. In order to emphasize the artistic-pedagogical tenets of this competition, the focus has been diverted from the order of placement (first, second and third place) to the recognition of overall artistic merit by selecting three award winners to participate in the master class without assigning them first, second or third places. The elements that determine the selection of the students are: individuality of interpretation, communication on an emotional level, general musicality, and stylistic understanding. Great performances are always individual, thoughtful, and touch the spirit. Although technical mastery is a "must," it should be reiterated that the true aim of this competition is to encourage performances of Beethoven's sonatas which reflect unique personal expression and which are original within the context of broad stylistic performance traditions. It should always be kept in mind that­as confirmed by recent scholarship­Beethoven's playing "was oriented toward the foal of emotional expression."

Artist Evlyn von Michalofski 's fantastical costumes of metal, plastic tubing and industrial felt transform the three women into high-tech mermaids, while Paul Mathiesen 's lighting structure evokes the high-diving aquarium of Kellerman's vaudeville routines. "an entrancing gloss on water-musics past and present ...Sleek and focussed, its references to romantic piano repertoire were clear but unparochial - a rippling polyphony of scales that mimicked the subtle geometry of light and movement on a pond, a repeated pitch treading minimalist waters as a phrase of Chopin lapped against it, a high G sharp struck like a hammer on an anvilas the simple harmonies beneath it mutated." - Elissa Poole

Argerich Solos in Taiwan Reports by William Hsieh Info from newspapers and Internet reports At the National Palace Museum. With a pupil (story at the end). Reports by William Hsieh on Saturday, November 25, 2000 Recital on Thursday night, November 23rd What I'm about to write below are from my readings of bits and pieces of Taiwanese media on the Internet , so excuse the incoherence. Argerich finally set foot on Taiwan, among much speculation of cancellation. She appeared to be in a great mood, even telling people that she had previously visited Taiwan (private visit) some 30 years ago with Charles Dutoit, who is an avid traveler. As she was quite tired from the recent Japanese tour, she headed straight to her hotel to catch some zzzz's "as much as she felt like" before she would rehearse the next day. Meanwhile, an accoustics expert was called in to adjust the hall acoustics. Two extra standing panels were installed on both far ends of the stage, the one already hovering above the stage was lowered. All panels had their angles adjusted for maximum projection. As it turned out, she was late for the rehearsal, making rumors fly again about a possible no-show.

Home History Yaddo Video Group Photo Gallery ... Festival Schedule Concerts Stephen Hough Orpheus Concerts Honor Yaddo Composers On Centenary Of Artists' Community New York (April 14, 2000) — World premieres of new compositions by distinguished former residents of Yaddo highlight the first programs of The Yaddo Centennial Arts Festival, a four-month series of concerts and other events commemorating the centenary of the renowned artists' community in Saratoga Springs, New York. The concerts, featuring pianist Stephen Hough, performing at Alice Tully Hall, and the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, performing at the New York Society for Ethical Culture, are scheduled for the first and second weeks of May, 2000. Incorporated in 1900 by Spencer and Katrina Trask, Yaddo provides professional creative artists the opportunity to work without interruption in a supportive community. The Yaddo Centennial Arts Festival celebrates the inspired philanthropy of the Trasks, the accomplishments of the artists who have been their guests during the past century, and the creative vitality of the arts in America today. In an evening featuring works by Yaddo composers on May 4 at Lincoln Center, pianist Hough presents "Celebrating Yaddo," including world premieres of works by David Del Tredici and Lowell Liebermann, and the New York premiere of George Tsontakis' Ghost Variations, composed at Yaddo in 1991 in honor of Hough. At the Society for Ethical Culture, the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra presents "Orpheus Celebrates Yaddo," a series of concerts with world premieres on each of three nights, with new works by Daron Hagen, Angels, on May 7, Dan Coleman's Music for a Cold Night and George Tsontakis' Fanfare on May 11, and Steven Burke's Shakedown on May 13. These premiering works by Yaddo composers were written especially for the occasion of The Yaddo Centennial Arts Festival.

A musical joy London's Regent Hall Piano Festival, 16-23 August 2004, reviewed by MANUS CAREY In order to get to the four lunchtime recitals in this year's Beethoven Piano Society of Europe piano festival it was necessary to battle a way through the masses of hungry lunchtimers, all making a beeline for their respective cafes and restaurants on Oxford Street. For Regent Hall, the home of the Salvation Army, is situated here in the heart of London's thronging shopping district and yet, rather disappointingly, managed to attract such a pitifully small audience for each concert. This was a shame since it was a week of such variety and high-quality music making with each player deserving a much greater crowd of listeners. First up on Monday was Tau Wey, who was presented with a medal as winner of the 2003 BPSE competition. Before even arriving on stage, it was possible to tell from the unusual and well thought-out programme that here was a searching pianist who was not just willing to reproduce the old piano favourites. There was the compulsory Beethoven sonata (in his case the Appassionata ), at times menacing, at times very lyrical, always artfully shaped. This was then followed by William Byrd's

Report : The Sydney International Piano Competition of Australia : Stage IV Not many of us have the time or patience to sit through hours of the same piece played over and again. In this special, we bring you to the semi-finals (Stage IV) of The Sydney International Piano Competition of Australia, in reflections by Dr Chang Tou Liang from the York Theatre, Seymour Centre, Sydney University. This review has been kindly sponsored by the Sydney International Piano Competition by CHANG Tou Liang Make no mistake about it. The Sydney International Piano Competition ( links to the website above) is the "big one" in the Pan Asia-Australo-Oceanian hemisphere of international piano concours . I dare say Sydney stands head-to-head with Leeds, Brussels, Forth Worth, Moscow and Warsaw in the elite of piano competition organising cities. The way this competition keeps a nation (or in this case, a continent) gripped through its broadcasts on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), its legacy of recordings on the ABC Classics label and the level of hospitality it offers its guests speak volumes on the expertly and highly professional way it is run. By all standards, this is a young competition. First run in 1977, its maiden competition boasted Andre Laplante, Daniel Blumenthal, Dennis Lee

Bright SHENG (b.1952) Flute Moon for piccolo/flute, harp, piano, percussion and strings China Dreams Postcards Sharon Bezaly flute (Flute Moon) Singapore Symphony Orchestra conducted by Lan Shui BIS -CD-1052 [72:33] full-price by William Beh Having attended the concerts which preceded these recordings ( Flute Moon was performed on Jan 22, 2000 ), I can still remember distinctly, on the occasion, being overdosed and underwhelmed on the musical language of Bright Sheng. Listening to it again, after six months, it doesn't seem to sound as underwrought as one recalls. More importantly, this recording might just be the foothold by which Sheng's music can receive some serious critical assessment. Bright Sheng comes from the generation of Chinese-American artists who lived through and survived the Cultural Revolution. Today, they form an active company of composers (including Tan Dun, Chen Yi and Zhou Long) who draw upon both Western and Oriental influences in a fusion of styles, while constantly struggling to refine their craft and pushing back, in so many ways, their boundaries of expression. In their own way, they are a barometric indication of modern compositional tastes and styles. That said, the Singapore Symphony Orchestra is surprisingly conversant with Sheng's unique musical stylings, having had a long association with his music. The relationship goes back as far as 5 August 1994 when they gave the world premiere of
