<p>NTDTV and Kmozart invite you to experience the power piano of Mr. Rueibin Chen from Vienna! Mr. Rueibin Chen, a Chinese –Austrian born in Taiwan, is an internationally renowned pianist with an exceptional reputation for his stupendous technical brilliance, immense energy and intensity, refinement of touch, and creative and artistic expression. His masterful performance of Rachmaninoff's complete piano concertos (including the Paganini Rhapsody Op. 43) in two consecutive nights has made him "the first of its kind and has left a sensational imprint in the minds of the overflowing audiences".  Neue Zurcher Zeitung calls him “one of those geniuses that come along once in twenty years,” and the Boston Globe was impressed with his “white-hot energy, steel-fingered, power and athletic virtuosity,” balanced with “delicacy and imagination."</p> <p>A child prodigy, Mr. Chen began his concert career at age 10 performing with the Taipei Symphony Orchestra. At 13, he was chosen by the Taiwanese government from a national talent search and sent to Vienna, Austria, where he obtained a Concert Diploma and an Artist Diploma. He was Maestro Lazar Berman’s only Asian student. Mr. Chen was winner of 18 medals (5 gold medals) in various international piano competitions in Warsaw (Chopin), Tel Aviv (Rubinstein), Salt Lake City (Bachauer), Athens (Callas), Vienna, Manresa and Italy (Rome, Rachmaninov, Bellini, Stresa). Madame Rubinstein and Prime Minister Itzhak Rabin personally presented Chen his prize in Tel Aviv. </p> <p>Mr. Chen actively tours the world with renowned orchestras. In 1994, he was named the Principal Soloist of "Moldova" Iasi and Tirgu Mures Philharmonic Orchestra in Romania. He has appeared as soloist with National Polish Radio Symphony, Utah Symphony, Budapest Symphony, Prague Symphony, Czech State Philharmonic of Brno, Moscow State Symphony, Russian State Symphony, Romanian National Radio Symphony, London Chamber Players, amongst others. Some of the leading conductors he has worked with are S. Comissiona, J. Silverstein, A. Ligeti, A. Wit, G. Delogu and P. Kogan. Since his European debut in the Grossensaal of the Konzerthaus in Vienna to great acclaim in 1984 (at the age of 16), he has conducted performances in celebrated concert halls such as Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Kennedy Performing Arts Center, Musikverein in Vienna, Gewandhaus Leipzig, Concertgebouw Amsterdam, Opera de Monte Carlo, Warsaw Philharmonic, Bolshoi Hall in Moscow, F. Mann Auditorium Tel Aviv, etc.  Mr. Chen has been invited to perform at many festivals such as the International Salzburg Music Festival, Vienna Spring Festival, Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival, the International Rachmaninoff Music Festival Moscow, the Chopin Festivals in Austria, and various festivals in Czechoslovakia, Poland and Romania.</p> <p>Mr. Chen's talents and techniques have been highly praised by many renowned musicians and critics. Maestro Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau was convinced of Mr. Chen's astonishing technique. Spanish pianist Alicia de Larrocha described Chen's playing as "magnificent" and "full of promise". C. Braendle, a well-known Swiss writer, gave a detailed account of Chen's musical achievements in his book "The Viennese".</p>
