As the youngest prize winner of the International Rachmaninoff Piano Competition, the world-renowned Taiwanese-Austrian pianist Rueibin Chen is deeply influenced by his teacher, Lazar Berman, who is descended from Liszt, Siloti, Goldenweiser and Rachmaninoff. The tour "Total Rachmaninoff" is named after Rachmaninoff and is held in honor of the 140th anniversary of his birth. He is the first pianist to perform Rachmaninoff's Three Nocturnes in Asia and California, USA. On 12/7 Saturday at the famous Segerstrom Concert Hall in Orange County, along with major transcriptions and compositions from the legendary Rachmaninoff, it will also be the S. Cal premiere of the rarely-heard Three Nocturnes written when the composer was a teenager.
