As an emerging chamber group, the MIT has held over 50 concerts and events since forming in 2013. In 2016, the MIT invited Lars Mlekusch to serve as artistic director, and has collaborated with numerous other great musicians including Marija Aupy, Vincent David, Philippe Geiss, Hiroshi Hara, Gregory Letombe, Yo Matsushita, Masanori Oishi, Nicolas Prost, Debra Richtmeyer, Alexandre Souillart, Nobuya Sugawa, and the FIVE SAX Quintet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a pioneer saxophone ensemble in Taiwan, the MIT Saxophone Ensemble makes it a duty to expand the saxophone ensemble repertoire. In addition to arranging works for the ensemble, the group continuously commissions new works by active composers, including Philippe Geiss, Hao-Yuan Chiu, Che-Yi Lee, and Chihchun Chi-sun Lee. The MIT is also devoted to promoting the saxophone in Taiwan and bringing it into the mainstream by holding masterclasses, lectures, recitals, and outreach concerts. Most notably, there are currently more than 20 ensembles and over 200 players that are coached by the MIT. Members of these ensembles vary in age from youth to adults, and beginners to college music majors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having defined themselves\nas a versatile chamber group, the MIT Saxophone Ensemble always enjoys being\ninnovative with their performances, teaching, and other aspects of the group\u2019s\nartistry. The broad interests of members contribute to this characteristic, and\nlead the group to have wider and deeper influences that are essential to improving\nthe local saxophone society and audience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Performers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">MIT Saxophone Ensemble<\/span><br>Cheng-Yen Chang<br>Chih-Yu Chang<br>Po-Fang Chang<br>Li -Fong Chen<br>Pin-Hua Chen<br>Li-Chun Hsiao<br>Pai-Haw Huang<br>Tzu-Yun Huang<br>Cheng-Chieh Lee<br>Tsung-Tzu Lee<br>Meng-Shuan Lin<br>Tey Tat Keng<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Soloists from MIT Saxophone Ensemble<\/span><br>Chih-Yu Chang<br>Li-Fong Chen<br>Pei-Han Huang <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Programme<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>3 August 2019, 9pm: Recital by MIT Saxophone Ensemble<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chia-Hua Tsai: <em>\u98a8\u4e2d\u6f23\u6f2a Ripples of the Wind<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hsuan-Hung Chou: <em>\u6046\u6625\u53e4\u57ce \u2013 \u746f\u5da0\u4e4b\u61b6 Hengchun Ancient City \u2013 Memories of Lonkjouw<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hao-Yuan Chiu: <em>\u5931\u9b42 Fugue<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hao-Yuan Chiu: <em>\u6176\u9577\u751f Benidictus<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>4 August 2019, 5pm: Recital by Soloists from MIT Saxophone Ensemble<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gerald Preinfalk: <em>Tri Oti Logie<\/em><br>Chih-Yu Chang, saxophone<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wen-Chi Tsai: <em>\u827e\u746a\u7684\u82d4\u766c\u5716\u9451 Alma\u2019s Field Guide to Mosses<\/em><br>Pei-Han Huang, saxophone<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yi-Hsien Chen:<em>\u300a\u9be4\u300bLight of Inner Steps for Saxophone Solo<\/em><br>Li-Fong Chen, saxophone<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MIT Saxophone Ensemble Made in Taiwan (MIT) Saxophone Ensemble was formed in 2013 by talented Taiwanese saxophonists who have studied in the United States, France, Japan, Thailand, and the Netherlands.
