He could play with poetic insight, he could also erupt into an almost terrifying overdrive. But now there is the repose and the forces have been brought into complimentary harmony. ....This man plays music with uncommon understanding and the instrument with uncommon imagination!” Richard Dyer, Boston Globe. (January 1999) Mr. Hung-Kuan Chen is probably the most decorated pianist in Boston. He won the Gold Medals both in Arthur Rubinstein International Piano Master Competition in Israel and the Feruccio Busoni International Piano Competitions in Italy. He gathered prizes in Geza Anda, the Queen Elisabeth and the Chopin competitions and when the New York Times failed to cover Chen’s Alice Tully debut, after winning Young Concert Artists, Ruth Laredo in another NY publication exclaimed, “rarely have I heard such eloquence and musical understanding. Is anyone listening?” A true recitalist, he has performed in major venues worldwide.
