"'Engaging voice, insightful lyrics and reflective piano-driven chamber folk packs quite the punch' -- LA Weekly"

The San Jose Mercury News likened Vienna Teng to "a child of Chopin and Sarah McLachlan," and she took her first name in adulthood as an homage to the city of Mozart and Beethoven. She writes songs so graceful and memorable that you realize only slowly how personal and confessional they really are. Teng has been writing songs and playing the piano since she was six, and by now her silvery piano stylings seem intricately woven into her soothing vocals. A few years ago Vienna Teng came to southeastern Michigan for the first time -- and we fell in love. This artist has a real bond with Michigan audiences, and we've recently learned the love affair between Vienna Teng and Michigan is mutual: she's moving to Ann Arbor to study for a master's in sustainable enterprise at the U-M. So come on down, welcome a really brilliant talent to town, and pick up a copy of Vienna's breathtaking new live album, "The Moment Always Vanishing." Vienna appears with multi-instrumentalist and "Inland Territory" album arranger Alex Wong at tonight's concert, which benefits The Ark.
