Pianist Jiahao Han - A luminary figure in the realm of classical music.
An esteemed ambassador of Kayserburg Young Artist, Jiahao Han stands at the crossroads of exceptional talent and unwavering dedication, currently in pursuit of the Doctor of Musical Arts degree at The Juilliard School majoring in piano. Guided by the mentorship of acclaimed luminaries Dr. Yoheved Kaplinsky and Mr. Hung-Kuan Chen, Jiahao's musical journey is marked by a relentless pursuit of artistic brilliance and a commitment to pushing the boundaries of his craft. His performance was hailed by the General-Anzeiger (Germany) for being "solid, fantastic, and full of emotional drama".
​
Commencing his exploration into the realm of composition in September 2022, Jiahao embarked on a transformative journey as a non-major composition student under the esteemed tutelage of Dr. Philip Lasser at Juilliard. Over the course of three semesters, he showcased his burgeoning talent by performing two sets of his piano suites ("Suite To Grown-ups Who Were once Children" and "Four Fantasy Pieces") along with a ballade for piano and orchestra.
