As the Year 2024 comes to a close, OFA would like to extend our last thanks to our summer collaborators, notably Pianist of the AMAI- Association for Music and Artistic Interaction, Verein zur Förderung der Musik und künstlerischer Interaktionen, for your support in producing together with OFA’s first Masterclass in Vienna 🤗🎶

About Donna: “A Vienna-based pianist, is known for her versatility on stage. Not confined to solo performances, she also shines as a Liedpianist and chamber music pianist. Her repertoire seamlessly blends classical and contemporary pieces. Donna’s musical journey began with a triumph at the International Art Festival for Keyboard Instruments in Shenzhen at the age of 11, a success that propelled her to move to Vienna in 2016.

Immersing herself in studies at the Richard Wagner Konservatorium and the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna, Donna sharpened her skills under the guidance of renowned pianists like Tim Ovens, Hafez Babashahi, Stephen Delany, Michael Lipp, and Veronika Weinhandl.

Beyond her solo pursuits, Donna serves as a Accompanist in various operas, theater and Art songs productions. She has shared the stage with accomplished artists such as Maria Kosa, Martha Harreiter, Anna Bondarenko, Chiara Sciliano, Jubin Amiri, and collaborated with the Vienna Klangforum in the Wiener Konzerthaus for contemporary music concerts. Donna’s dynamic presence in both classical and modern genres underscores her commitment to musical diversity and collaboration.”

“Florence Chong, a Malaysian Coloratura Soprano, began her musical journey as a pianist. She received a full scholarship to pursue the Diploma in Music course at SEGI College Subang Jaya, Malaysia, and graduated with distinction in 2011. In 2013, she was accepted into the prestigious BA in Vocal Studies at the Royal Irish Academy of Music, Dublin. She was awarded this degree, which is validated by Trinity College Dublin, with first-class honours in 2017. Florence was then awarded a Master’s Degree in Solo Singing with cm laude, specializing in Opera Performance, by the Conservatorium Maastricht, the Netherlands, in 2020, where she studied with Yvonne Schiffelers and Abigail Richards. Florence was one of the young artists of The Fat Lady opera group in the Netherlands for the season 2021/22, where she was coached by Tamir Chasson.

Florence has sung in numerous opera productions across Ireland, Germany, Hungary, the Netherlands, Italy, Bosnia, and Malaysia. Her repertoire includes notable roles such as Frasquita in Bizet’s Carmen, Queen of the Night in Mozart’s The Magic Flute, Lucy in Menotti’s The Telephone, Suor Genovieffa in Puccini’s Suor Angelica, and more. Besides her opera engagements, Florence has left a notable impression on international audiences as a captivating recital artist. She was a featured soloist at several prominent music festivals including the Klang Music Festival in Malaysia, Festival de la Musique in France, Festival Via Musica, and Grachten Festival in the Netherlands, among others. Florence was also one of the featured singers on the CD album “A Musical Portrait” by Hans Leenders, where she recorded two compositions by Hans in 2022.

In recent years, Florence has been traveling extensively, maintaining an active performance schedule spanning between Malaysia and Europe.”
