The Anvil Theatre hosts Hong Kong pianist Vicky Chow as she plays Philip Glass’s Piano Études on November 23 at 7:30 pm.

Originally from Vancouver and now based in New York, Chow has toured to over 40 countries and performed in such venues as Carnegie Hall, Amsterdam’s Muziekgebouw, and London’s Royal Albert Hall, among several others. She has been described as “brilliant” by the New York Times and “one of our era’s most brilliant pianists” by Pitchfork.

Chow joined the Bang on a Can All-Stars in 2009 and has since collaborated with a variety of artists and ensembles. In 2022, she released Philip Glass: Piano Études Book 1, which Glass himself called “a highly dynamic and expressive performance”. Last year, her recording of Canadian composer Vince Ho’s Supervillain Études was nominated for a Juno Award.

Tickets to see Chow’s upcoming show, along with more details, are at the Anvil Theatre.
