2011 / 2012 Wyatt Concert Series

YUJA WANG, piano 

Twenty-four year old Chinese pianist Yuja Wang is widely recognized for playing that combines the spontaneity and fearless imagination of youth with the discipline and precision of a mature artist.

Regularly lauded for her controlled, prodigious technique, Yuja’s command of the piano has been described as “astounding” and “superhuman,” and she has been praised for her authority over the most complex technical demands of the repertoire, the depth of her musical insight, as well as her fresh interpretations and graceful, charismatic stage presence.

THE PATH TO VIRTUOSITY, featuring Luka Coetzee, Yan Li, Stephen Nguyen, Tate Zawadiuk, Colleen Venables, Paul van der Sloot and special guest NING FENG, violin

The Wyatt Artist in Residence Concert Series is proud to partner with the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra’s Virtuosity Festival for The Path to Virtuosity concert.

Like great wine, virtuosity is a process that takes decades. The Path to Virtuosity will feature one jaw-dropping performance after another as these extraordinary talents show you the ‘ages and stages’ in the development of a great artist.
