Laura Liu, a native of Miami, Florida and known for “sound deep, warm, and consistently musical”currently lives in New York City and studies with Cynthia Phelps and Misha Amory at The Juilliard School (Classical Voice America). Liu’s ardent love of musical collaboration and conversation has led her to pursue a rich life in chamber music. In the summer of 2026, Liu appeared as a Junior Artist at Marlboro Music Festival, as well as an artist at Moritzburg Festival, Tippet Rise Art Center, Sunkiss’d Mozart Summerfest, Cultural Caravan’s June Festival, and Rome Chamber Music Festival. Her summer performance of Mozart’s G-minor Piano Quartet alongside Mitsuko Uchida, Stephanie Zyzak, and Elena Ariza was described by the New York Times as “unerringly natural.”

In previous years she collaborated with musicians Gidon Kremer, Antje Weithaas, and Gary Hoffman as a Junior Artist at Kronberg Academy’s “Chamber Music Connects the World” and participated in the Chamber Music Society of Palm Beach’s “Rising Artist” Program, the Olympic Music Festival Fellowship, Music@Menlo’s International Performer Program, the Perlman Music Program’s Chamber Music Workshop, the Taos School of Music, Kneisel Hall, Music Academy of the West, and the Heifetz International Music Institute. Highlights from past seasons include performing with her quartet, Quatuor Cael, in Alice Tully Hall and Peter Jay Sharp as a member of The Juilliard Honors Chamber Music program, collaborating alongside the Frisson Ensemble, appearing at Santa Fe ProMusica, and making her Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center debut in both their “Meet the Music!” and “Inside Chamber Music” series. This coming season she will reappear at the Chamber Music Socierty of Lincoln Center for their Sonic Spectrum series, appear at Caramoor’s Evnin Rising Stars Program, and return to IMS Prussia Cove to participate in their Open Chamber Music.
