Winnie Huang: "Art making itself is knowledge making."
Winnie Huang is an Australian violinist, gestural performance artist, composer and artistic researcher currently based in Europe. An active performer of new music, Winnie is founding member and currently co-artistic director and violinist of Paris based new music ensemble soundinitiative. As part of the Contemporary Leaders, Winnie is currently co-curating the Lucerne Festival Forward and coaching at the summer Lucerne Festival Academy. She also serves on the Board of Trustees for Eavesdropping London.
Winnie continually works with emerging and established composers, regularly collaborates with international ensembles and frequently performs at international festivals. Career highlights have included solo performances at the Berlin Philharmonie (DE), KKL Lucerne (CH) and the Elb Philharmonie (DE), among many international solo and ensemble tours in Europe, USA and Australia. Winnie is artiste étoile for the Lucerne Festival Summer 2025.
Winnie’s strong interest in the performance of musical-gestural works is explored through her own original compositions and collaborating with other composers, developing highly gestural contemporary works. Winnie awarded a Schloss Solitude (DE) artistic fellow in the field of “Aural & Physical” developing her compositions for the physical body.
An engaging educator, Winnie has consistently taught in around Europe and Australia. She has frequently guest tutored at many major institutions and presented at multiple international conferences. Winnie also serves on the Advisory Editorial Board of the international journal FORUM+. After a few years as Junior Professor of Artistic Research at the Hochschule für Musik und Tanz Köln, Winnie soon takes on a new position as Associate Professor for Research in Music Performance at the Conservatorio della Svizzera italiana, Ticino, Switzerland.
