In the span of a few short years, Angel Stanislav Wang has emerged as a pianist of remarkable global distinction. At 23, he has already earned more than 35 international awards, including first prize at the International Rachmaninoff Piano Competition and recognition as the youngest finalist in the 2025 Van Cliburn International Piano Competition. Wang joins musicians of the Naples Philharmonic for a program that traces three decades of Viennese chamber music, from Beethoven’s boisterous, improvisatory energy to the refined, conversational style of Dittersdorf and Mozart.
Angel Stanislav Wang’s appearance is in collaboration with Grand Piano Series, an independent nonprofit organization.
The Sypert Salon Series is generously sponsored by Drs. George Sypert and Joy Arpin.
