First Prize winner of the 18th International Chopin Piano Competition 2021 in Warsaw, Bruce Liu has emerged as one of the most compelling pianists of his generation — a musician praised not only for his dazzling technique, but for his curiosity and artistry that combines “nimble versatility” (New York Times) and “playing of breathtaking beauty” (BBC Music Magazine).

Highlights of Liu’s 2025/2026 season include several major international tours including Japan with Bavarian State Opera Orchestra and Vladimir Jurowski, China with the Staatskapelle Dresden and Daniele Gatti, among others.

An exclusive recording artist with Deutsche Grammophon, Liu was awarded Opus Klassik’s Young Talent of the Year prize 2024 for his debut studio album Waves. His second studio album, featuring Tchaikovsky’s Seasons, was released in November 2024 receiving rave reviews such as “superbly polished, but wonderfully free of mannerisms, giving these charming salon pieces the respect and sincerity they deserve” (The Guardian).

Born in Paris and raised in Montréal, Bruce Liu’s artistry reflects his multicultural heritage -blending European refinement, North American dynamism, and the long tradition of Chinese culture.
