<\/a>\nFollowing the success of last year\u2019s MISE-EN Festival, ensemble mise-en is enthusiastic and excited to present another festival of music by some incredibly talented composers from all over the world. Last year\u2019s festival featured primarily pieces that already composed, but this year will include world premieres written specifically for ensemble mise-en. This festival is not just a series of performances \u2013 it as a composer-performer community event developed through mise-en\u2019s close engagement to each composer involved.<\/p>\n
In total, mise-en music festival will feature three curated concerts, one marathon concert (total 6 hours, comprising 6 sectional concerts), and two workshops.<\/p>\n

Visiting Composers from Taiwan<\/p>\n
Lily Chen, born in Taiwan, is a composer exploring timbral potentials of both acoustic and electronic music. In her recent works, she creates counterpoint of timbre by synthesizing sound gestures with subtlety, shaping imaginative and poetic atmosphere in her music. Lily is currently a PhD candidate in music composition at the University of California, Berkeley, where she is studying with Ken Ueno, Franck Bedrossian, Edmund Campion, and Cindy Cox.

Shih-Wei Lo\u2019s work is often informed by the diverse articulations of time and space in various domains such as art, literature, culture, and politics, and may be viewed as a process of transfiguring these into music, providing audience with a contemplative medium. Currently a Dean\u2019s Fellow at Columbia University, he is pursuing a DMA in Composition. He received his MM in Composition from the University of Washington. He was recently awarded First Prize in the ASCAP\/SEAMUS Student Commission Competition and Honorable Mention in the 2015 American Composers Forum-s National Composition Contest.

Tai-Kuang Chao is a musical storyteller and sonic painter. Chao employs notes fused with acoustic timbres to blend his musical pigments onto the palette, which becomes the paintbrush that leads the audience\u2019s imagination to create an image within the realm of their fantasies. Chao\u2019s music often collaborates dance, lighting and costume design, which creates a visual stunning performance, thus commanding attention and musical involvement from the audience.<\/p>\n
Mr. Chao is pursuing his doctoral degree in composition-theory at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Chao\u2019s other principal teachers include Erin Gee, Reynold Tharp, Erik Lund, and Kyong Mee Choi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
