Summary: The youngest pianist in the 2009 Competition, The Dallas Morning News observed that Haochen “Zhang, from China…demonstrated a musical maturity almost unimaginable in one so young.” Since his solid gold performance in Fort Worth, Mr. Zhang has traveled the world as a musical ambassador of the Van Cliburn Foundation with performances in China, Germany and Poland, as well as on some of America’s finest performing arts series. In demand from coast to coast, in the Bay Area he performed in recital on both the Steinway Series and with the San Francisco Symphony to acclaim. Highlights of the current season include East Coast engagements with the Philadelphia Orchestra and recitals in Atlanta, Boston and New York at Lincoln Center’s Mostly Mozart Festival. Welcome Haochen Zhang back to Fort Worth as he proudly opens the 2010-2011 Cliburn Concerts season!, “Haochen Zhang, the 19-year-old pianist who won first prize at this year's Van Cliburn Competition in Fort Worth, Texas, is the real deal. With a flawless technique, nuanced sense of timing and phrasing, and huge coloristic range at the keyboard, he is a formidable pianist and compelling artist.” (San Francisco Examiner)
