Born in 2008 in Shanghai and raised in Japan, Sophia Liu studied with the legendary Dang Thai Son, sharpening her technique and musical voice from a young age. Her competition wins, including the Ettlingen First Prize and Cooper International First Prize, established her as a formidable talent on the piano stage. In 2024, she released a live-recorded debut album, Live at the Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli Competition, via 2R Digital. Looking ahead to 2025, Sophia prepares a studio album Chopin • Liszt for Mirare Records, featuring singles such as Liebestraum No. 3 (Réve d’amour) and Chopin Andante Spianato (live).
Her 2025 schedule spans major festivals like La Folle Journée Nantes, La Grange de Meslay, and La Roque-d’Anthéron, with debut performances for the Nice Philharmonic and Toulouse Capitole Orchestra. Notably, she will make her NHK Symphony Orchestra debut in Tokyo and Osaka on October 3–4, 2025.
