The Tryon Concert Association will present violinist Paul Huang and pianist Eric Zuber in concert Friday, Feb. 24, at 8 p.m. at the Tryon Fine Arts Center (TFAC).

Huang began his musical studies in his native land of Taiwan at age 7. Later he entered the Juilliard Pre-College program and ultimately received his bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Juilliard. He has received many prizes and awards including the prestigious 2015 Avery Fisher Career Grant. Because of his distinctive sound and expressive style the Washington Post proclaimed, “Huang is definitely an artist with the goods for a significant career.”

Pianist Eric Zuber, who made his orchestral debut with the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra at age 12, has also received many outstanding awards and honors. He holds degrees from the Peabody Institute of Johns Hopkins University, the Curtis Institute of Music and the Juilliard School. The Cleveland Plain Dealer described Zuber’s skills as “irresistibly fluid and illuminating.”
