Yuja Wang may have been disappointed when she walked on stage on Thursday evening to find 30 percent of the seats empty. But her dazzling performance on the piano did not disappoint those who attended her concert at the National Center for the Performing Arts (NCPA). The standing ovations for three encores promised that when she returns with the Lucerne Festival Orchestra under the baton of Claudio Abbado in September, NCPA's concert hall will be full.
