陈宏宽

　　陈宏宽：出生于台湾，长于德国。他是获得最多奖项的钢琴家之一。他曾在肖邦(Chopin)国际钢琴比赛、盖察•安达(Gèza Anda)、蒙特利尔(Montreal)及伊丽莎白皇太后(Queen Elisabeth)国际钢琴比赛中获奖；在阿图•鲁宾斯坦(Arthur Rubinstein)和布佐尼(Busoni)比赛中获得金奖；以及在1991年获得菲雪尔(Avery Fisher Career Grant)奖。在青年音乐会艺术家组织安排下，他与休斯顿(Houston)交响乐团、巴尔的摩(Baltimore,)交响乐团、以色列(Israel)交响乐团、苏黎世音乐厅(Tonhalle)乐队、蒙特利尔(Montreal)交响乐团、毕兹堡(Pittsburgh)交响乐团、比利时皇家乐团(Royal Orchestra of Belgium)、旧金山莫扎特艺术节乐团(the Mozart Festival Orchestra of San Francisco)等等合作演出。近期，他曾与俄罗斯国家(Russian State)交响乐团、台北交响乐团及广州交响乐团同台演出。和他合作过的指挥家有Hans Graf、Christoph Eschenbach、George Cleve、Josef Silverstein、Andrew Parret及水篮。和他合作过的艺术家有Laurence Lesser、马友友、林昭亮、Roman Totenberg、Denes Zsigmondy、Leslie Parnas、章雨亭、Anthony Gigliotti、David Shifrin。他还曾与Tema Blackstone及其姊姊陈必先作钢琴二重奏表演。他在一些著名的音乐厅中举办个人独奏会，BMG公司出版了他演奏的肖邦前奏曲集，获得广泛的好评。当纽约时报错过了他在纽约Alice Tully Hall的音乐会报道，Ruth Laredo写了一遍热烈的评论文章，给另外一个媒体欢迎这位伟大的新艺术家，她写道：“我极少听到具有如此说服力和音乐感染力的演出，有人去听了吗？”

　　在1992年，这位钢琴家的右手因一次事故造成了严重的神经损伤，为“局部肌肉张力不全”这种病症所苦，并被重复地告知将不能再演奏，然而，他一再拒绝相信这个事实。取而代之，他自己通过练气功而得以再次公开演奏。1998年3月，他痊愈后的第一次个人独奏会获得了热情的赞扬。Richard Dyer在波士顿环球报(Boston Globe)中写道：“回顾他80年代的演奏，就如太阳神与酒神(Apollo and Dionysus)，弗洛雷斯坦与欧赛贝乌斯(Florestan and Eusebius)般，充满强烈对比的演奏个性在陈的内心战斗，他能够以发自内心如诗般的演奏，也能够爆发惊心动魄的效果。然而如今，安详宁静与气势磅礡的演奏却达到如此和谐完整的融合。”1999年1月，在另一次采访中，Dyer先生补充道：“他具有非同寻常的音乐理解力及对乐器本身也具有了一种非同寻常的想象力！”

　　陈宏宽现任上海音乐学院钢琴系主任。来上海前，他在1984年加入波士顿大学任教，自1993年加入新英格兰音乐学院。其后移居到加拿大，并在皇家山音乐学院获得“驻校最杰出艺术家”的称号。

　　他的作品可以从BMG及Bravo出版的产品欣赏得到。

　　Hung Kuan Chen pianist

　　Born in Taiwan and raised in Germany, Hung Kuan Chen is one of the most decorated pianists, winning prizes and awards in the Chopin, Gèza Anda, the Montreal and the Queen Elisabeth competitions. He won the Gold Medal in the Arthur Rubinstein and the Busoni Competitions, as well as receiving the award of an Avery Fisher Career Grant in 1991. He toured under the auspices of Young Concert Artists, performing with the Houston, Baltimore, Israel, the Tonhalle, Montreal, Pittsburgh Symphonies, the Royal Orchestra of Belgium , the Mozart Festival Orchestra of San Francisco and many others. Most recently he played with the Russian State, Taipei and Guangzhou Symphony Orchestra. He worked with conductors such as Hans Graf, Christoph Eschenbach, George Cleve, Josef Silverstein, Andrew Parrett and Sui Lan. He has collaborated with such artists as Laurence Lesser, Yo-Yo Ma, Chao-Liang Lin, Roman Totenberg, Denes Zsigmondy, Leslie Parnas, Bion Tsang, Anthony Gigliotti, David Shifrin: Piano duo with Tema Blackstone and his sister Pi-hsien Chen in concert. When the New York Times failed to cover Chen's Alice Tully concert (due to a labor strike), Ruth Laredo wrote a rave review in another publication welcoming a great new artist, exclaiming, “rarely have I heard such eloquence and musical understanding. Is anyone listening.”

　　Then, in 1992, his right hand suffered serious neurological damage in an

　　accident, which resulted in Focal Dystonia, a debilitating disorder. He was told repeatedly that he could not expect to play again; just as repeatedly, he refused to believe this. Instead, through self-practice of Qigong (a traditional Chinese meditation technique) and his own thorough and unique research, he regained his ability to play.

　　His first solo recital in March of 1998 received rave reviews: "Back in the '80's, Apollo and Dionysus, Florestan and Eusebius, were at war in Chen's pianistic personality. He could play with poetic insight, he could also erupt into an almost terrifying overdrive. Now there is the repose and the forces have been brought into complimentary harmony. " Richard Dyer, Boston Globe. January 1999, Mr. Dyer adds... 'This man plays music with uncommon understanding and the instrument with uncommon imagination! "

　　Mr. Chen joined the faculty of Boston University in 1984 and New England Conservatory Extension in 1993. In 1999 he moved to Canada, and was Distinguished Artist in Residence at Mount Royal Conservatory. Currently he is Chairman of the Shanghai Conservatory piano department and Director of their International Piano Academy.

　　Hung-Kuan Chen is presented by Vantage Artists, and can be heard on BMG and Bravo label.
