I took part in the Asia Pacific Harmonica Festival in Hong Kong and won second place in the solo category. It was two years since I had started learning the harmonica and also it was the first time taking part in a competition overseas. This competition gave me the opportunity to listen to and learn from world-leading harmonica virtuosos such as Franz Chmel, Yasuo Watani and Sigmund Groven. This experience really inspired me to step into this career. The most valuable lesson I learnt during that festival was \u201cHaving good technical playing skills is not enough: to be a great performer, you must also learn the art of interpreting.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
I was majoring in education and a minor in music during my university years. Eventually, I made my way to mark the first \u201ccase\u201d harmonica performance major in Taiwan. The lessons my professor,\u00a0Shen Diau-Long<\/a>, gave me taught me that playing the harmonica was not only about the performance technique but also on musical theory. Subsequently, the folk music major I took in graduate school incorporated the understanding of music from different perspectives such as sociology and history.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Apart from playing the chromatic harmonica with Sirius, I have performed live with various bands and orchestras.
