自幼酷爱音乐,曾随前上海交响乐团指挥,著名钢琴家,音乐教育家梅帕器(Maesteo Mariopaci) 学习钢琴。梅帕器是世界钢琴大师李斯特的再传弟子。1949年首次和上海交响乐团合作演出贝多芬第一钢琴协奏曲反应热烈。
1950年参加上海交响乐团担任钢琴独奏家和室内乐演奏家,并任教于上海乐学院及中国福利会儿童剧团。1954年在北京中央乐团担任独奏家和室内乐演奏家,1962年被评为国家一级钢琴演奏家,得到周恩来总理在中国海怀仁堂的亲自接见。
1982年在美国深造,随当时美国钢琴协会主席Ozan Marsh 学习钢琴表演艺术及新式“形象”的教学法,获得“音乐家”称号。
她擅长演奏西洋古典乐及浪漫派音乐。她的演奏热情细致、音乐优美。在她演奏李斯特、舒曼和肖邦的作品中,我们能够有所领悟。她对中国作品深入钻研,对乐曲的诠释有独到之处。她是著名的《梁山伯与祝英台》小提琴协奏曲钢琴部分的首创及首演者。每次演奏《松花江上》时都热泪盈眶。改编的广东音乐《娱乐升平》受到热烈欢迎。
她在伴奏工作方面一直秉承前苏联著名声乐家苏石林所教导的原则 : “伴奏应该是艺术指导,而不仅是演奏音符,是和合作者共同进入音乐意境,是音乐背景的共同创造者,要有深厚的文化素养”。她和著名小提琴家孔昭晖合作演奏的五首中国乐曲录制成CD专辑,畅销国内外。2004年她随新加坡“百合女声艺术团”参加在无锡举行的第七界国际合唱节,获“优秀伴奏奖”。她虽人到晚年,仍“老骥伏枥,志在千里”,犹如一朵绽开已久的玫瑰,继续散发余香。
