Gilmore Rising Stars: Fei-Fei Dong

Shenzen, China native and Juilliard School graduate Fei-Fei Dong didn’t come from a musical family: Her parents bought a piano in hopes of stimulating their daughters’ cognitive abilities. For her part, Fei-Fei began taking music seriously when she wanted to play better than the other kids in town.

Now, she’s well-known in the competitive piano circuit as a finalist in both the International Chopin Competition and the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition. She’s appeared at Carnegie Hall, Alice Tully Hall, the Kennedy Center and the Aspen Music Festival, and in 2014, she won the Concert Artist Guild Award. She holds a master of music degree from The Juilliard School and resides in Manhattan.
