His musical journey began early, with him taking piano lessons under the watchful eye of Dr. Zhiyu Wang at just three-and-a-half years old. As he grew, so did his fascination with the musical world, eventually leading him to also embrace the cello. By the age of 6, he earned himself a chance to perform at Carnegie Hall, an experience that broadened his horizons by exposing him to a plethora of musical talented performers. More recently, Fang’s piano performance have garnered him multiple platinum awards across various music competitions.
