Gloria Chien, piano

The Middlebury Performing Arts Series opens its Winter 2021 Virtual Season with pianist Gloria Chien—an equally acclaimed performer, concert presenter, and educator. Selected by the Boston Globe as one of its Superior Pianists of the year, Taiwanese-born Chien has performed as a recitalist and chamber musician around the globe, and performs frequently with the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center as an alumna of its Bowers Program. Chien founded the String Theory chamber music series in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and is Co-Artistic Director of both the Chamber Music Northwest and Lake Champlain Chamber Music festivals. Chien’s CMS program features works by Field, Liszt, and Mendelssohn. “Gloria Chien, who appears to excel in everything…”—Boston Globe
