WHAT FOLKS ARE SAYING ABOUT LUCILLE

"Her technique is impeccable, as is her sense of phrasing. And I'm in awe of how she manages to make the concerto work with two small hands."
-TORONTO STAR
(John Terauds, Feb 23, 2010)
"Lucille Chung traverse la partition avec une virtuosité et une puissance très impressionnantes. Quelques passages où une certaine difficulté est évidente ne diminuent en rien l'immense plaisir que procure cette exécution où nuance et subtilité ont aussi leur place.
- CYBERPRESSE.CA
(Claude Gingras, May 15, 2010)
"And he [Saint Saëns] couldn't have picked a better performer of his piano music than the young, immensely talented Montreal-born virtuoso, Lucille Chung...Her playing has self assured attack, virtuosity, romantic abandon and a sense of youthful exuberance..."
- WHOLENOTE
(Janos Gardonyi, May 5, 2010)

This is the first year that there has been more than one recipient for the award.

A prominent friend and great donor to musical causes, and an enthusiastic amateur pianist, he wanted to help enable the finest young Canadian artists to attain important careers. Wonny Song and the Afiara String Quartet will be featured in a joint performance, as part of Mooredale Concerts' 2010-11 season, Sunday, October 31, 3:15 p.m. at Walter Hall.
