OBERON’S GROVE (NEW
YORK)
Acclaimed for her “staggering virtuosity,” Hanzhi Wang is the only
accordionist to ever win a place on the roster of Young Concert
Artists in its 60-year history. An ambassador for her instrument,
Hanzhi has been praised for her captivating stage presence and
performances that display passion and finesse.
A groundbreaking artist, Hanzhi’s other firsts include being named
Musical America’s “New Artist of the Month,” an interview and
performance on the 2,145th episode of New York WQXR’s Young Artists
Showcase as the first solo accordionist on the program, and the
Naxos label’s first-ever solo accordion CD, “On the Path to H.C.
Andersen,” which was nominated for the prestigious DR (Danish Radio)
P2 Prize in 2019.
A First Prize Winner of the 2017 Young Concert Artists Susan
Wadsworth International Auditions, Hanzhi debuted in New York in The
Peter Marino Concert at Carnegie Hall’s Zankel Hall. Her Washington,
DC debut opened the 40th Anniversary Young Concert Artists Series at
the Kennedy Center, co-presented with Washington Performing Arts.
She holds the Ruth Laredo Prize and Mortimer Levitt Career
Development Award for Women Artists of YCA.
Hanzhi has performed recitals at UC Santa Barbara’s Lively Arts,
Stanford Live, Bravo! Vail, Krannert Center, and Candlelight Concert
