DONGNI XIE
"Her skillful rendition of the romantic, playful and prancing moments of a work full of unexpected twists and turns would reward her with the Gold Medal."
-David Dow Bentley <The People’s Critic>
Originally from Changsha, China, Dongni Xie is the first prize winner of multiple piano competitions. She is one of the guest artists of the prestigious Cliburn Foundation as well as one of the Legacy Pianists of the renowned Achúcarro Foundation. Xie has been invited to perform across the world as a globally renowned and in demand artist.

She’s held performances at Carnegie Hall, Château de Fontainebleau (France), Dream Forest Arts Center (South Korea), Gijon City Hall (Spain), and the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts (Los Angeles), as well as a plethora of other venues throughout Europe, Asia, and the United States—being the featured soloist with orchestras such as the Boulder Symphony Orchestra, the Debut Symphony, the Meadows Symphony Orchestra and the Mansfield Philharmonic. She has appeared as a featured artist at numerous international music festivals, including the Imago Sloveniae (Slovenia), Festival ARTIS (Slovakia), and the August Music Festival (UK).

"Every run in the Chopin Ballade No. 3 in A-flat major was musically motivated. And in the first and third movements of Béla Bartók’s Sonata, Sz. 80, Xie used her fine technique in the service of the music.Her sonorities and harmonies sounded as Hungarian as Géza Anda’s. Bravo."
