Teachers' Remarks V｜Xiaoya LIU: Pour your heart into music, shape your life through music
Pour your heart into music, shape your life through music. — Xiaoya LIU
The Art Lighthouse Project returns with Teachers' Remarks V, a new season of inspiring conversations. This time, we sit down with faculty from across the School — performers, educators, and above all, mentors who guide with both mastery and heart. As students take the mic, dialogue unfolds between youth and experience, between curiosity and wisdom — lighting the path for every dreamer on their musical journey.
"I really enjoy this kind of musical interaction with students. Understanding each other's feelings through music. And the process of being moved by music. So I have always wanted to use what I have learned throughout my life to light a lamp for my students."
In this episode, we feature Dr. Xiaoya LIU, Lecturer of Strings, Wind, Brass and Percussion at the School of Music, CUHK-Shenzhen. Dr. Xiaoya LIU reflects on how, in an age of rapid technological change, music continues to nourish students’ inner worlds. She looks back on pivotal moments in her own journey—sharing how following her inner voice shaped her path—and speaks to the core qualities today’s music students need to cultivate. Dr. LIU also offers practical, heartfelt advice on performance. Step into a conversation filled with clarity, warmth, and strength.
