The exceptional Chinese guitarist Junhong Kuang, who won first prize in the Thailand International Guitar Competition in November 2011, has made a remarkable impact on the international stage, receiving standing ovations at venues in New York (Carnegie Hall), Shanghai and Beijing for his flawless technique and youthful optimism.

This recital by the exceptional 14 year-old guitarist Junhong Kuang promises to create quite a stir on its release in the West. Renowned guitarist and recording producer for the album Gerald Garcia states that Kuang “really is something”, admiring the “youthful optimism about his playing” and adding, “needless to say, his technique is flawless.”
