About

Pianist and composer Winnie Cheung enjoyed her musical start as a pianist at the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts. Some years of adventurous traveling later, she settled with composition/piano degrees from both the University of Chicago (B.A.) and the Eastman School of Music (M.M./D.M.A.). After studying with Augusta Read Thomas, John Eaton and many others, Winnie has had her voice heard through her compositions and piano playing in many parts of the world. With tango, she is finally able to combine and express all of who she is: a global musician with the power to integrate, and with bandoneonist Ben Bogart, “to make the world a better place, one tango at a time.”

Music
