Violinist Sarah Chang made her jaw-dropping debut with the New York Philharmonic at the age of 8, marking her transition from child prodigy to fully-fledged, adult virtuoso with performances with the world's leading orchestras, conductors and performers in the years that followed. A Carnegie Hall, Tanglewood and Hollywood Bowl veteran, Chang is an accomplished chamber and recital player unparalleled for her on-stage voracity and technical prowess.
The tour de force performer is known for her kinetic mannerisms (backbends and quick, angular movements whilst playing, as well as bringing a sense of glamour to each performance (multiple formal gown changes). Yet the distinguished diva's playing always takes the spotlight - expressive impulses, unbridled passion and wild flights of finger work are hallmarks of her mesmerising performance style.
