    I don't know if this is still an active site, i hope it is. I just heard Stargazer on my local PBS station WVIK. It's a beautiful piece, bravo maestro! I would like to know if there will be a recording of it to purchase. If so when, and in what format? Thank you

    why does his music always sound mundane and unimaginative? like he's still a student and only plays to impress his professors not for himself, let alone to be creative. performance like this can be heard in the hands of thousands of music students worldwide, and they could be more imaginative than he does here.

    In Walnut Creek CA. white supremacy ideologies and behaviors are the law of the land. From the Racists in Red Trucks AKA the Contra Costa County fire department to the lying racist Walnut Creek police department these are two taxpayer funded aggressive hate groups. Since the CCCFD and WCPD are racist institutions what are the teachers in the WCUSD teaching Black, Hispanic, Filipino, Indian and Pakistani children? Jesus is the Way and the Truth and the Life.

    So clear and fantastic timing and rubato. Haochen makes the piece sound fresh and like a musical gem instead of just a display of pyrotechnics (though Haochen has that in spades!). I got to hear Haochen live recently in one of the best performances I've ever heard in my life. Phenomenal pianist AND musician. A true artist.
