Zitong Wang, the 2023 Summer Festival Protégé Project Pianist, is now a sought-after solo pianist globally. She has emerged as one of the most compelling voices of her generation, captivating audiences with her fiery bravura and poignant sensitivity. She has performed with major orchestras and as a chamber musician across the U.S., Europe, and Asia.
