Praised for his vibrant artistry and wide-ranging musical vision, pianist Chen-Shen Fan returns to the National Taichung Theater for his Purple Pride Homecoming Recital. With dual doctorates from Northwestern University, Fan now serves at the National Taiwan Symphony Orchestra, moving fluidly between performance and arts administration, shaping a “Shohei Ohtani–style two-way” presence in the classical world.
As the first chapter of his Island Series (2026–2028), this recital introduces the world premiere of a new work by Han Chen, recently nominated for a 2025 Grammy Award, alongside Taiwanese compositions and enduring piano classics. Through this program, Fan highlights cultural confidence and the resonant sound of his island home.
