Eric Lu, piano

Please note that Eric Lu has revised this recital’s program, which will be performed as follows:

Praised by the New York Classical Review as a musician of “exceptional musical sensitivity,” the young American pianist Eric Lu is rapidly building a reputation as a promising artist with a distinctive musical voice, known for uncanny elegance, delicacy, and restraint at the keyboard.

A recipient of this year’s prestigious Avery Fisher Career Grant, Lu first came to attention at age 17 as a winner at the 2015 Chopin International Competition in Warsaw. Three years later, he scored another triumph, capturing First Prize at the Leeds International Piano Competition, the first American to receive that award since Murray Perahia. 

Lu makes his Cal Performances debut with a spellbinding program of Schubert and Schumann.
