About this event

Rising star

He brought Carnegie Hall's audience to their feet

In 2024, James (Zijian) Wei triumphed as the Mixon First Prize winner in the prestigious Cleveland International Piano Competition while also securing rare multiple accolades: Best Chamber Music Performance Award, Henle Verlag Urtext Special Prize, Audience Choice Prize, and Young Judge Prize.

His performances — including last year’s Carnegie Hall debut where he received multiple standing ovations — are filled with genuine emotion, boundless enthusiasm, and gifts galore.

Our Margaret Baxtresser Pianist this season, James is presented in collaboration with Piano Cleveland.
