6 Voices

About Me

I have been teaching myself to play the piano since I was 13 years old. Before graduated from Tianjin University (an engineering school), I started my vocal ensemble "6 Voices", and also my vocal ensemble was the frist one from China that had sung the famous madrigal album "The Triumphs of Oriana".

6 Voices vocal ensemble, which comprises six college students from Tianjin University, was founded in Oct. 2004, Tianjin China. Rencently, we attempt to perform some renaissance madrigals, as well as some modern and folk choral pieces.

President / Choirmaster: Mao Yong
