About
An imaginative and electrifying performer, Zee Zee is unique among the young generation of pianists. Described as “full of enthusiasm and glamour, radiating the vigor of youth” (Chinese Gramophone), her interpretations and communicative abilities have been praised as “taking us to another reality…bright, expressive, and moving to the extreme” (Belgischer Rundfunk), while her creative maturity has been hailed as “a powerful, passionate, and compelling representation of pure artistry” (Los Angeles Times).
Highlights in the recent seasons include the season-opening concert with the Estonian National Symphony under Neeme Järvi, a performance with the Philharmonia orchestra at the Royal Festival Hall, a tour in the U.K. under Paavo Järvi, three performances with the Hong Kong Philharmonic under Christoph Koncz, Paavo Järvi, and Yu Long respectively, as well as the complete piano concertos of Beethoven and Saint-Saëns with the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra.
