Dr. Hui-Ting Yang
John M. Long School of Music
Troy University
Troy, AL 36082
Originally from Taiwan, Dr. Yang received the Bachelor of Music in Piano Performance from Taipei Municipal Teacher’s College. She received the Master of Music in Piano Performance from Ohio University, where she won the University Concerto Competition and performed as soloist with the Ohio University Orchestra. In 2006 she received the Doctor of Music in Piano Performance: Accompanying/Chamber Music from Florida State University, where she also received the Master of Music in Accompanying. Prior to joining the faculty at Troy University, she taught as an Adjunct Professor of Piano and served as an accompanist and vocal coach at the Gulf Coast Community College in Panama City, Florida.
As a performer, Dr. Yang is interested in developing and exploring new repertoire, especially contemporary music. In February 2007 she gave the world premiere of Clifton Callender’s Point and Line to Plane for piano solo, which was composed for her, in the Thirteenth Biennial Festival of New Music at the Florida State University. In November 2006 she was invited as a guest pianist to perform Ladislav Kubik’s Portrait for piano and two percussionists at “The Days of Contemporary Music” festival in Prague, organized by the Society of Czech Composers. The performance has been broadcast on Czech Radio, and a recording of the performance will be released by Arco Diva in 2008. She has also performed several works by living composers including Augusta Read Thomas, Laura Schwendinger, and a piano concerto by Matthew Burtner.
Additionally, Dr. Yang has been collaborating with violinist Dr. Emily Hanna Crane as part of the Hanna-Yang Duo, which has performed throughout the United States and Taiwan. In 2006 the duo gave the Asian premiere of Ju-hwan Yu’s Sonata for Violin and Piano No. 1, which was dedicated to Dr. Yang. Their recording of the Sonata will be released by Kum Seong Records in 2008.
Dr. Yang is a Lecturer of Music at Troy University, where she teaches piano and serves as an accompanist.
