Liu Ye
Liu Ye, M.A., Musicology, '17. We are proud to note that earlier this year music writer and M.A.-musicology candidate Liu Ye published her first book, Wo men de gang qin shi dai (Our Piano Era: Dialogue With World Distinguished Pianists & Insights on Contemporary Piano Culture) (Beijing: The China Federation of Literary and Art Circles Publishing House). It includes comparative study of piano performance/instruction methods, in-depth interviews with distinguished living pianists, the music critiques, research on music culture, and guidance for study of music abroad. The internationally renowned virtuoso Lang Lang, as well as prestigious pianists Robert McDonald, Gary Graffman, and Haochen Zhang, wrote the special recommendation of Liu's book for the book's covers. Distinguished Chinese piano educator Yafen Zhu (Lang Lang's teacher) and scholar Xianjie Zhu wrote the foreword.
