My teaching will focus on improving performance techniques and skills. Although the final goal of making music is to realize its musicality, but all expressions of music are based on firm techniques. These skills are always fundamental to making beautiful music.
I will also include the philosophy of music in my teaching, with special attention to expressing the philosophical thoughts behind music. I will also include some of my research in philosophy, especially aesthetics, in teaching. In my view, music is not only about joy but also about meditation and inspiration. These cultural enrichments may also profoundly influence musicians.
I'm currently pursuing an Honours Bachelor of Arts in Music and Philosophy at the University of Toronto.
My music journey began with the piano at the age of four and transitioned to the oboe at eight. I studied oboe with Professor Jingchun Jin, the principal oboe of the Beijing Symphony Orchestra, doctoral supervisor of the Central Conservatory of Music of China.
I've performed concertos with orchestras at Beijing Music Hall, Vienna City Hall and New Cosmos International Music Festival; also performed in Ensembles at the National Centre of Performing Arts of China, Edinburg International Music Festival and Vienna Musikverein. I was the principal oboist of the Sun Yat-Sen University Symphony Orchestra and China Central Television Youth Orchestra and am now a member of the University of Toronto Wind Ensemble.
