CHANG Shiuan


1989年生
張玹，1989年次，全職豆芽菜農夫，惟所種之物不可食，亦未必可充當精神糧食。出生後的第一個記憶是推著學步車，一步一聲音；第二次出生時正在抄寫心經。想透過運動中的聲音，放下對未來與過去的分別。

Born in 1989, Shiuan Chang is a full-time bean sprout farmer. However, the crops he grows may not always be edible nor necessarily serve as spiritual sustenance. His first memory after birth is walking a toddler walker, a step, a sound. The second "birth" occurred while hand-copying the Heart Sutra. Through the sounds of movement, he aims to let go of distinctions between the past and the future.

Described as "spiritual, light, and comforting" by Classic Agenda (FR), Shiuan is the 2018 Chicago Civic Symphony Composer Prize and the 2021 Asian Cultural Council awardee. In addition, he is the recipient of the 2021 Djerassi Artist Residency, the 2022 Helene Wurlitzer Foundation Residency Grant, and the 2023 ACF|Create.

His recent major productions include "Sounding Light (2020)," collaborating with the Cloudgate Contemporary Dance Company; Two flagship productions of the Taiwan International Festival of Arts: "I-Village (2021)," collaborating with the Sheng-Xiang Rock Band and the National Symphony Orchestra, and "A thousand stages, Yet I have never quite lived (2021)" collaborating with the Peking Opera artist Hei-Min Wei and National Symphony Orchestra, directed by Kengsen Ong; “Fateless Love (2022)” for orchestra, choir, and three singers premiered by National Symphony Orchestra.

CHANG Shiuan's music has been performed nationally and internationally at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center Rose Theater, Merkin Hall, Suntory Hall, Jordan Hall, Moscow Philharmonic Chamber Hall, Berlin Philharmonic Chamber Hall, Chicago Symphony Center, Taiwan National Concert Hall, Le Phenix Valenciennes, Royaumont, Archipel Festival, Boston Early Music Festival, Grafenegg Festival, and the Bartok Festival.
