==Career==
===Early work===
Her mother trained her to play one-finger melodies on the piano at age 3. For her fourth birthday, she was given a [[Violin#Sizes|1/16-sized]] violin. Upon hearing her play at a dinner party, [[Philadelphia Orchestra]] concertmaster [[Norman Carol]] asked music director [[Riccardo Muti]] to listen to her. At age 8, she auditioned alongside Muti and [[Zubin Mehta]], who was the music director of the [[New York Philharmonic]]. Both granted her immediate engagements.<ref>Heisler, T (September 15, 2004).

In 2006, ''[[Newsweek]]'' ranked her as one of the Top Eight Achieving Females in the United States. In the interview accompanying the feature, she said: "I think having a career at such an early age kept me focused. We schedule at least two to three years in advance in the classical industry. I felt so grounded and so grateful to already know what it was that I wanted to do with my life."<ref name="KoreanColoradoNews">{{cite web |title=For me, the stage is my home: violinist Sarah Chang |url=http://www.kncolorado.com/bbs/board.php?bo_table=korea_town_news&wr_id=59 |work=Colorado KoreanNetwork |publisher= kncolorado.com |access-date=October 31, 2010}}</ref>
