KNS Classical Aristo Sham wins The Cliburn

We are thrilled to announce that KNS Classical artist Aristo Sham has won First Prize at the 17th Van Cliburn International Piano Competition, becoming the first pianist from Hong Kong to achieve this historic milestone.

Aristo stood out among 28 finalists from around the world with his extraordinary performances of Mendelssohn and Brahms, and impressed both jury and audiences with his artistry, depth, and charisma.

This major international recognition is a testament to his talent, dedication, and artistic vision — and we couldn’t be prouder to have him as part of the KNS Classical family.

Congratulations, Aristo!
