Bruce Liu
Bruce Liu achieved worldwide fame in October 2021 when he won the 18th International Chopin Piano Competition, becoming the first Canadian ever to take first prize in the long history of this most prestigious event. He signed an exclusive agreement with Deutsche Grammophon the following March. His first album, featuring his winning performances from the Chopin Competition, won a Fryderyk Award and received international acclaim. It was named both Critics' choice and Editor's choice in Gramophone Magazine and was described as "simply one of the most distinguished Chopin recitals of recent years". His diverse cultural background has shaped his personality and character. He draws inspiration from sources such as European refinement, Chinese tradition, North American dynamism, and openness. He has studied with teachers such as Richard Raymond and Dang Thai Son and approaches his artistic journey with optimism and a smile.
