About
Pianist Eden Chen has appeared in concert halls worldwide, “enthralling audiences with fluid performances and fingers that dance upon, rather than play, the piano” (Leeds International Piano Competition Festival). Under Hung-Kuan Chen, Eden earned both Master and Bachelor of Music degrees from The Juilliard School, graduating with Juilliard’s highest Commencement prize. In his studies, Eden was supported by seven scholarships including the Gina Bachauer Grant, and won two full scholarships to the Aspen Music Festival and School. Eden is grateful for the mentorship of his past teachers Jerome Lowenthal, Rufus Choi, Ory Shihor, and Elena Makarova. He is an alum of the Lang Lang International Music Foundation, a National YoungArts winner, and a Jack Kent Cooke Young Artist, and was guest artist of the Leeds Piano Festival, organized by the Leeds International Piano Competition.
