Kathy Piao

Kathy is a young musician with a vivid imagination and a deep love for music. She began her musical journey at the age of five, studying both piano and violin. Since then, she has developed a strong passion for exploring sound, melody and musical expression.

Kathy enjoys performing and has appeared in numerous concerts both indoors and outdoors. She has been invited to perform in the ABC The Piano pop-up concert series at Darling Harbour, where her performances were featured by ABC, as well as at the Queen Victoria Building and the Sydney Opera House through the Concerts for All series. She was also invited by Australian composer Yantra to perform at a concert on the Central Coast. Her performances have always been warmly received by the audience. In addition, she was one of only two guest performers at her teacher Elen Rapoport’s solo recital.

Her musical achievements have been recognised in both national and international competitions. She won First Prize with the highest mark in her age group at the St George Eisteddfod and has received multiple First Prizes and the Exceptional Young Talent Special Prize in international competitions. These achievements led to invitations to perform at Winners’ Concerts at Carnegie Hall in New York and the Berlin Philharmonic Hall in Germany.

In addition to performing, Kathy enjoys composing and exploring music through multiple instruments, including piano, violin, flute and marimba. For her, music is both a playground of imagination and a beautiful way to connect with people.
