“Li’s playing combined youthful abandon with utter command,” declares the New York Times. Silver medalist in the 2015 International Tchaikovsky Competition and winner of the prestigious XIV Concours International Grand Prix Animato, George Li is regarded as one of the world’s most talented and creative young pianists. Since his critically acclaimed debut at age nine with the Xiamen Philharmonic Orchestra, he has appeared with the Cleveland Orchestra, the Boston Philharmonic, the Albany Symphony, Symphony Pro Musica, and Sweden’s Norrköping Symphony Orchestra, among others. Also an enthusiastic chamber musician, Li is a member of the Vivace Trio and has performed for members of the US Congress on Capitol Hill.
