SAMUEL YEUNG

Adjunct Professor

Biographical Note

Sam Yeung leads a diverse life as a violist and entrepreneur.

He completed his undergraduate studies in violin performance at the University of Toronto under David Zafer. Due to a shortage of violists, Sam studied violin and viola simultaneously from his third year onward. The switch to viola became permanent when Sam left Toronto to pursue his graduate studies in viola performance at Manhattan School of Music on scholarship.

During his time in New York City, Sam studied with Leonard Davis, the former principal violist of the New York Philharmonic. Sam’s time in New York enriched his musical life greatly as he worked with artists such as Pinchas Zukerman, David Geber, and Karen Dreyfus. In addition to his studies with Davis, Sam pursued supplementary studies with world renowned viola soloist, Emanuel Vardi. Vardi invited Sam to become his Teaching Assistant at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. After Vardi tore his rotator cuff in an accident, Sam assumed Vardi’s teaching responsibilities while completing his Master Degree on full scholarship.

Sam returned to Toronto and founded his first business, Candle with Care. Candle with Care, later evolved into Floret, a wedding decoration business that Sam has operated for the past 20 years. In addition to owning his own business, Sam is an invested pedagogue who passionately believes that the language of music is universal. In his teaching, he strives to instill in his students the value of holistic independent thinking in interpreting music.

Pingxin Xu – the yangqin dulcimer master

Highlights:

First to obtain a master degree in Yangqin (Chinese dulcimer) in China (1985)

Wastheyoungest Yangqin professor in the entire country of China (1993)

He graduated from Central Conservatory of Music (diploma) and China Conservatory of Music (Bachelor degree). In 1985 he became one of the first people to be a Master Degree student of the dulcimer in the entire country of China. On graduation in 1987, he became a full-time dulcimer teacher at the Conservatory. In 1993 he was promoted to be an Associated Professor – the youngest one with such a title in the entire institution with over 300 faculty/staff members in that year,also the youngest yangqin associate professor in the entire country at that time.

He had performed in many parts of China. Upon invitation in 1980, as a member of an elite group of musicians, he performed in the International Youth Arts Festival in Hongkong. The following year (1981), he was one of the 3 musicians to be invited to West Germany for a concert tour. These were the relatively early and rare experiences of China’s renewed cultural contact with the outside world after the Cultural Revolution (1966- 76).

In 1988, Gyorgy Ranky, considered the most accomplished Hungarian composer after Kodaly, on his visit to Beijing, was deeply moved by Pingxin Xu’s performance that he arranged a Hungarian dance number for Pingxin Xu with words: ” Dedicated to Pingxin, with admiration and friendship”.

In 1993, Pingxin moved to England and almost immediately became the most popular Chinese musician there with invitations coming in great number from major concert halls which included the renowned South Bank Centre, Barbican Centre, Queen’s Theatre (London), Royal Exchange Theatre (Manchester), Repertory Theatre (Birmingham). In January 1995, he gave a solo recital at the prestigious Purcell Room in London to a full house of enthusiastic audience that gave him long standing ovations. He performed for some of the highest ranked music festivals in Britain, including King’s Lynn, Brighton, Three Choirs, Shepperton, Henley, Edinburgh, and the Llangollen International Music Estedfod in Wales (1995. He was one of the only 3 featured solo acts invited – one of the other two performers was the legendary Luciano Pavarotti).

In 1993 he represented China to perform at the World Dulcimer Congress held in Hungary, and in 1995, he was the only Chinese Dulcimer player invited to perform for the International Dulcimer Festival in Munich, Germany, again at the International Dulcimer Festival in Switzerland, and in Czech Republic subsequently.

From the mid – 1990s, he has become a real international musician, introducing his Chinese dulcimer to hundreds of thousands of amazed audiences from all over the world.
