Ning An made his concerto debut at the age of 16, performing the Rachmaninoff Second Piano Concerto with the Cleveland Orchestra.  He has since appeared with the London Symphony Orchestra, the Warsaw Philharmonic, the Moscow Radio Symphony Orchestra, the Belgian National Symphony, the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra, the Flemish Radio Symphony, the Stuttgart Philharmonic, and the Taipei Symphony Orchestra.  He has worked with such conductors as Rafael Frubeck de Burgos, Kasmierz Kord, Jajha Ling, Vladimir Fedosseyev, Jorg-Peter Weigle, Marc Soustrot and Sergiu Comissiona.

Mr. An has presented recitals at venues such as Salle Verdi (Milan), Salle Cortot (Paris) and the Palais de Beaux Arts (Antwerp).  He has been invited to perform at numerous festivals, including the International Chopin Festival in Duszinski, Poland; the Gina Bachauer Piano Festival in Salt Lake City; New Hampshire’s Monadnock Music Festival; the Bourglinster Festival in Luxembourg; and the Interlaken Music Festival in Switzerland.  Mr. An was also a soloist with the Warsaw Philharmonic during their centennial world tour.

Mr. An’s Carnegie Hall debut, an all-Chopin program presented by the Chopin Foundation of the United States in Weill Recital Hall, was praised in the New York Concert Review for “the almost sculpted clarity of his playing, and his ability to maintain balance and tension in large-scale dramatic forms. . . .  Ning An impresses with his developed musicianship, and his perfect technical command.  I have no doubt that he will join the ranks of the finest interpreters of Chopin.”

First prize winner of the 2006 Tivoli International Piano Competition and the 2003 William Kapell Piano Competition, Mr. An has also won top prizes from the American Piano Association and the American Chopin Competition.  His other awards include third prizes from the Queen Elizabeth Competition, the Paloma O’Shea Santander Competition and the Cleveland International Piano Competition.

Ning An studied with Russell Sherman and Olga Radosalvjevich.  He is currently Artist in Residence at Lee University, Tennessee.
