Angela Cheng (Chinese: 鄭美蓮; born September 9, 1959)[1] is a Hong Kong-born Canadian classical pianist.

[4][5] With the foundation's support, Cheng studied at the Juilliard School in New York with Sascha Gorodnitzki, earning a bachelor's degree in music (1982).
[1][5] She went on to earn a master's degree in music from Indiana University Bloomington (1984), where she studied with Menahem Pressler.
[1] In 1994, she joined Piano Six (also composed of pianists Janina Fialkowska, Marc-André Hamelin, Angela Hewitt, André Laplante, and Jon Kimura Parker), which aimed to bring classical music to small communities across Canada.
