Biography
Award-winning Chinese language pianist who utilized his concerts to bridge worldwide differences.

He was known as the “globe’s ambassador from the key pad” by New Yorker journal and produced TIME’s set of the 100 Many Important People in the Globe in ’09 2009. His dad was also a specialist musician, playing the original Chinese stringed device the erhu. He performed in the 2011 White Home supper to honor Chinese language premiere Hu Jintao.
