Hailed by The Washington Post as “an artist with the goods for a significant career,” and praised by The Strad for his “stylish and polished playing,” 22-year-old Taiwanese-American violinist Paul Huang is already recognized for his eloquent music making, effortless virtuosity, and compelling stage presence. Among his honors are First Prize of the 2011 Young Concert Artists International Auditions and First Prize at the 2009 International Violin Competition Sion-Valais in Switzerland.
2013-2014 season includes Mr. Huang’s Lincoln Center concerto debut with the Orchestra of St. Luke’s at Alice Tully Hall, his Boston recital debut at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, and his Spain debut with the Bilbao Symphony performing both Mozart’s Violin Concerto No. 3 and Walton’s Violin Concerto. He will also appear in recitals at Jordan Hall in Boston, the Strathmore Center in Washington D.C., Rockefeller University, Friends of Music (NY), and a return engagement at Merkin Hall in New York City.
