Praised for his “technical wizardry and versatility” (Sounds Like Sydney), Cairns-born Reuben Tsang began learning the piano with Koko Julian before moving to Brisbane to study at the Queensland Conservatorium Griffith University, first under the guidance of Natasha Vlassenko OAM and, presently, with Daniel de Borah. He holds a Bachelor of Music with Distinction and First Class Honours and was awarded the 2024 Conservatorium Medal.

Reuben won First Prize, Best Recital, and the People’s Choice Award at the 2024 Lev Vlassenko Piano Competition. He also received multiple prizes at the 2023 Sydney International Piano Competition, was a semi-finalist at the 2023 Aarhus International Piano Competition in Denmark, and won the Elisabeth Murdoch First Prize at the 2022 Great Romantics Competition in Melbourne.

Over the last two years, Reuben has appeared as concerto soloist with the Melbourne and Queensland Symphony Orchestras and has performed nationally in recital and at festivals including the Bendigo Chamber Music Festival, Canberra International Music Festival, Queensland Art Song Festival, Megalong Music Festival, Out West Piano Fest, and the Musical Chairs Chamber Music Festival in Montreal.

In September 2026, Reuben will commence postgraduate studies on scholarship at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester under the tutelage of Kathryn Stott.
