Mr. Huang’s performances have led him throughout North America, South America, Europe, and Asia.

Mr. Huang’s concerts have also been featured on radio and television broadcasts in various cities across the United States and abroad. Most recently, his performances were aired on “Primo Movimento,” a popular classical music program on RaiRadio 3 in Rome, Italy. An avid chamber musician, he also enjoys performing with others as he has collaborated with members of the Cleveland Orchestra and Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra in recitals. Equally active as a soloist with orchestra, he has performed with the Sammamish Symphony, Northwest Philharmonia, Peru National Symphony, Wooster Symphony Orchestra, Central Ohio Symphony, and Sichuan Symphony Orchestra.
Huang’s recordings can be found on the Centaur Records and Nimbus Alliance labels. His latest album, Celebrating Women Composers, is a chamber disc that he collaborated with violinist, Shannon Thomas. Other recordings include Jack Gallagher: Piano Music and Johannes Brahms: Selected Piano Music, in spring 2017. Both of which have received rave reviews as critics have described Huang’s performances as “thrilling” (The Classical Reviewer) and that “Huang deserves kudos for his sparkling and sensitive playing, and that better performances of these works would be well-nigh impossible to come by.” (Fanfare) Soon-to-be-released albums include volume one of the complete solo piano music of Nikolai Medtner.

Mr. Huang’s creative interests consist of promoting lesser-known works and music of our time. He has performed and recorded music of Mark Applebaum, Augusta Read Thomas, Lera Auerbach, Jennifer Higdon, and Jack Gallagher. Recently, he has been performing Frederic Rzewski’s monumental work, “The People United Will Never be Defeated!” in recitals. Huang’s current recording project of the complete solo piano music of forgotten Russian-romantic composer, Nikolai Medtner, is also notable.
As a prize winner of several important international competitions, Mr. Huang has garnered awards at the World International Piano Competition, The International Artists Competition, and Artists International Auditions.
