我很佩服他. 陳現為上海音樂學院鋼琴係主任。

  [zt][用頭腦找到恢複的方法]

  出生在台灣、生長在德國、移民美國後又移居加拿大的陳宏寬,年輕時有著極其輝煌的成就。在世界上最重要的九大國際鋼琴比賽中,他榮獲了7個大獎,是國際樂壇上獲獎最多的鋼琴家之一。他與世界上很多著名樂團和大指揮家、演奏家合作過。傅聰評價說:“他是一位大藝術家。”

  難以想象的是,這位鋼琴家在13年前一次偶然的事故中,手受傷差點毀了一生事業。他被告知再也不能從事演奏了。然而,陳宏寬開始自學氣功,並研究出一種特殊的手指恢複練習法。沒想到,奇跡發生了。他再次獲得了演奏的能力。1998年,他在美國的獨奏音樂會上獲得了極大成功。之後,他彈完了貝多芬32首奏鳴曲,在世界上巡演,成為貝多芬作品的權威演繹者之一。

  “很多鋼琴演奏者手指受傷後無法恢複,主要是他們沒辦法放棄”,陳宏寬有著一雙幹淨而修長的手,他坦率地說,剛開始也非常喪氣,但一年半後,他突然想到,“要是真沒辦法,放棄就好了”。又過了一年半,他決定重新試試看,“用頭腦找到恢複的方法,重新訓練,現在神經組織方麵的內傷基本好了。”

  [在國內任職,機會難得]

  2005年9月,陳宏寬辭去了加拿大皇家音樂學院教授一職,隻身飛到了上海。他的到來,最高興的,莫過於上海音樂學院董金平書記和楊立青院長。2004年,鋼琴大師傅聰向上音推薦這位大鋼琴家後,兩人聽得眼睛發亮。於是,開始了長達一年的跨國“獵缺”。

  談起到上海任職一事,陳宏寬顯得很高興。“能夠接觸國內的音樂家,給很多年輕人講課,真的是機會難得。”他很喜歡這份工作,“去年10月我開了國際大師班,全國各地很多朋友來聽課,我通過我對音樂的態度、了解,給學校、老師、學生一些不同的影響,將我的專長與同學們交流,這是件很好的事情。”

  [性格不好,彈琴會有問題]

  “音樂是會改變世界的一個因素,是神聖的、單純的。”陳宏寬接觸了很多的學生,也發現他們在學琴時有兩個誤區,有的就想著出人頭地,成為“郎朗第二”,有的則希望通過良好的技巧拿第一。陳宏寬強調,形(身體)、心(心靈)、性(性格),合三為一,音樂才能打動人,而“性格不好的人,彈出來的東西會有問題。”

  對於中國近年來出現的鋼琴天才,陳宏寬認為,“許多學生都非常有潛能,如果樂器與環境問題能得到改善,我相信,兩年內,積攢的能量將爆發,鋼琴水平會有驚人的提高。”他表示,自己在國內任教的目的就是要讓學生能夠了解音樂更深刻的內涵,不要慌張地走過“學生時代”。“音樂這條路是走不完的,要想成為一個完美的音樂家,就沒有畢業的一天。”

"the performance was a stupendous display of power, speed, stamina, and color... the playing of a master."
Richard Dyer, Boston Globe, 2006
"This man plays music with uncommon understanding and the instrument with uncommon imagination" -- Richard Dyer, Boston Globe
"rarely have I heard such eloquence and musical understanding. Is anyone listening?" -- Ruth Laredo
Hung-Kuan Chen is one of the great personalities of the music world: enigmatic, brilliant and versatile. He is a pianist of uncompromising individuality and a remarkably inspiring pedagogue. Born in Taipei and raised in Germany, Mr. Chen's early studies fostered strong roots in Germanic Classicism which he tempered with the sensibility of Chinese philosophy: The result is a dynamic and imaginative artistry. Furthermore, he is regarded as an extraordinary interpreter of Beethoven's music.
One of the most decorated pianists of his generation, Mr. Chen won top prizes in the Arthur Rubinstein, the Busoni and the Geza Anda International Piano Competitions, along with prizes in the Queen Elisabeth, Montreal, Van Cliburn, and Chopin International Competition; also the recipient of the Avery Fisher Career grant, and a Young Concert Artists winner. He has appeared in the music capitals of Asia, Europe and the Americas and collaborated with many major orchestras including Houston, Baltimore, Israel, Montr?al, Pitt*****urgh, the Tonhalle, San Francisco and Shanghai. Mr. Chen has performed with highly esteemed conductors; Hans Graf, Christoph Eschenbach, George Cleve, Josef Silverstein, Andrew Parrett and Sui Lan; and colleagues including Yo-Yo Ma, Cho-Liang Lin, Roman Totenberg, Denes Zsigmondy, Bion Tsang, Anthony Gigliotti, David Shifrin, and Laurence Lesser and pianists Tema Blackstone and Pi-hsien Chen.
Mr. Chen is Chair of the Piano Department of the Shanghai Conservatory and is the Director of the InternationalPianoAcademy in Shanghai. Prior to this he joined the faculty of BostonUniversity, New England Conservatory Preparatory and was a Distinguished Artist in Residence at Mount Royal Conservatory in Canada. Mr. Chen has adjudicated International Piano Competitions and has taught and performed in the annual music festival for the Foundation of Chinese Performing Arts in Boston since 1993.
In 1992 Hung-Kuan Chen suffered an injury to his hand which caused neurological damage and eventually resulted in Focal Dystonia. Through Qi Gong meditation and his own unique research he was able to heal and return to his life as a concert artist. His first post-accident solo recital in March of 1998 received rave reviews and he was described as a transformed artist: "Back in the '80's Apollo and Dionysus, Florestan and Eusebius were in Chen's pianistic personality. He could play with poetic insight, he could also erupt into an almost terrifying over drive. Now there is repose and the forces have been brought into complimentary harmony." (Boston Globe)
In recital this season, Mr. Chen is playing in San Francisco, Boston, New York (Carnegie Hall Isaac Stern Auditorium), and in Shanghai, Guangzhou, and other major cities worldwide. Mr. Chen is represented by Blackstone Artists Management.
