Bass Performance Hall here we come! MeVs will be present at the Van Cliburn 2009 Competition, happening May 22 – Jun 7. At a cursory glance, the 30 competitors have resumes so impressive, I wouldn’t even know who to root for. Each have had extensive training since a young age, attended prestigious music schools, performed worldwide, and some have even released their own albums! However, I am curious to see how younger pianists such as Haochen Zhang (19) and Zhang Zuo (20) will fare against their competitors.
