About the Artist

Watch Zhu perform a solo and chamber music recital at the Morgan Library & Museum

Praised as "especially impressive" and "a thoughtful, sensitive performer" who "balanced lyrical warmth and crisp clarity " (Tommasini, The New York Times), pianist Zhu Wang was awarded First Prize in the 2020 Young Concert Artists Susan Wadsworth International Auditions. In 2019, Zhu was finalist in the Clara Haskil International Piano Competition, and he has been a featured soloist on WQXR’s Young Artist Showcase and WFMT’s Dame Myra Hess Memorial Concerts. The world-renowned pianist Fou Ts’ong recognized Zhu as an "excellent pianist with a natural sense of harmony and imagination" whose sensitive and engaging performances exhibit a remarkable depth of musicianship and poise beyond his age. His Carnegie Hall debut made The New York Times' "Best of Classical Music 2021" list.

Zhu started learning piano at the age of five. He is a graduate of the Curtis Institute of Music and of The Juilliard School. Zhu is currently pursuing his Master of Music degree at The Juilliard School under the tutelage of Emanuel Ax and Robert McDonald. He gratefully acknowledges the support of the Bagby Foundation for the Musical Arts.
