Xiayin Wang is one of the rising young concert pianists to emerge from China’s thriving classical music scene. Her father was a professional erhu player (a Chinese string instrument) and she won several prizes in China before coming to the U.S. She joins us to perform selections from her third album, an all-Scriabin CD on the Naxos label. This is a repeat edition of Soundcheck.

Xiayin's playing is absolutely enchanting. Plus, I was pleasantly surprised to see that she is stunningly beautiful as well! I totally concur with her view of herself as playing like a Russian! As an adult who finally worked up the nerve to take piano lessons last summer, I can honestly say that I was inspired to get back to practicing. Thank you so much for introducing me to her work!
