ACCLAIMS
SMITHSONIAN CONCERT - "Xiayin Wang’s performance was extraordinary. Our Asian Pacific American Program was honored to have been a part of this event. She clearly has a very bright future and we thank her for making us look great!" - Franklin Odo, Asian Pacific American Program Director
FERGUSON CONCERT - "Oh my goodness, what a great concert! We LOVED it. Being able to meet her after the concert was icing on the cake. I again thank you very much for giving us this chance. I would not have known she was performing (nor did I know of her) if it wasn't for you. I am very impressed with her skills and talent and look forward to her next CD." - Robert Lewis, VA Academy of Music

KIMBALL CONCERT - “Write down the date – last Friday, February 22, 2008. On that night, at the Kimball Theatre, the sensational pianist Xiayin Wang made her Williamsburg debut and held a full house in rapture with a program of Scriabin, Ravel, Prokofiev, Chopin and Gershwin. Yes, she played the Earl Wilde arrangement of The Man I Love as one of three encores and it was delightful. That Xiayin Wang is a major talent is a given, having played at Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall in New York to great acclaim by the public and glowing reviews by the critics. But seeing her in performance and listening to her music is a unique experience that all concert goers should seek out.
Simply put, she plays with The strength of Rachmaninov, The dexterity of Art Tatum,
And the exquisite tone and touch of Artur Rubenstein.
She’ll be at the Ferguson Center in March, so if you missed her last Friday, make the short trip. You will have an extraordinary experience. And even if you did go to the Kimball last Friday, if you go to the Ferguson I am told it will be a completely different program. Except for the Ravel.. Oh well, what a hardship,. Listening to La Valse again as played by
Xiayin Wang, is a delightful prospect.”
Sandy Lesberg from his broadcast on Williamsburg Radio Station WRRW FM
