Yuja Wang

Die Pianistin Yuja Wang, der Klarinettist Andreas Ottensamer und der Cellist Gautier Capuçon sind in aller Welt aufgetreten und haben in ihrem Musizieren ein intuitives, fast telepathisches Zusammenspiel an den Tag gelegt.

Brilliant and charismatic pianist Yuja Wang is among the most prominent pianists in the world, becoming a star by age 21 and building a consistently growing career since then. Russian virtuoso music is at the center of Wang's repertory, but she has expanded into new musical realms. Yuja Wang (Wang Yuja in the Chinese naming system; Wang is her family name) was born in Beijing on February 10, 1987. An only child like most Chinese of her time, she grew up with a dancer mother and percussionist father. She took up the piano at six, was identified as a major talent, and took classes at the Central Conservatory of Music in Beijing.
