FREDERIC CHIU

Frederic Chiu’s intriguing piano playing and teaching springs from a diverse set of experiences and interests: his Asian/American/European background, his musical training, and an early and ongoing exploration of human psychology, especially the body-mind-heart connection. With over twenty CDs on the market, his repertoire includes the complete works of Prokofiev as well as popular classics of Chopin, Liszt, and others, and lesser known masterpieces of Mendelssohn and Rossini, with a special place for the piano transcription. Many have been singled out, such as "Record of the Year" by Stereo Review, "Top 10 recordings" by The New Yorker, with raves from the Wall Street Journal and The New York Times.
