Eric Lu was born in Massachusetts to immigrant parents from Kaohsiung, Taiwan and Shanghai, China.[4] He started piano studies at the age of six with Dorothy Shi (杨镜钏), near Boston, MA. Later on, he enrolled at the New England Conservatory Preparatory School, where he studied piano with Alexander Korsantia and A. Ramon Rivera. In 2013, he was admitted into the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia, where he currently studies with Jonathan Biss and Robert McDonald. He is also a pupil of the pianist Dang Thai Son.
In October 2015, he had a distinguished participation at the XVII International Chopin Piano Competition, winning the 4th prize at the age of 17, becoming one of the youngest laureates in the history of the competition. He was one of the few pianists to put forth the 24 Preludes, Op. 28 in the 3rd stage. Earlier in 2014, he won the Moscow International Fryderyk Chopin Competition for Young Pianists,[5] and the US National Chopin Competition in Miami (2015).[6] Shortly afterwards, he performed a recital at Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall in New York,[7] as well as the 70th International Chopin Festival in Duszniki, Poland.[8] In 2017, he won the International German Piano Award in Frankfurt.
