Chia-Hui Lu (Chinese: 盧佳慧; pinyin: Lú Jiāhuì) is a Taiwanese classical pianist.

Lu is active in the cultural arts community in Taiwan. She is the chairwoman of the Egret Foundation, a non-profit organization that promotes Taiwan culture and arts.[1] She is a faculty member of the National Taiwan University of Arts and the Affiliated Senior High School of National Taiwan Normal University. For her album Enchanted[2] she transcribed Isaac Albeniz's Tango in D.[3][clarification needed] For her album Amore,[4] Lu composed Butterfly Orchid.[5]

Classical music performances

Lu is a classical pianist by training and have played many concerts around the world. In New York City, Lu has performed recitals at Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall[6] and Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center.[7] In Europe, Lu performed at the Rome National Music Festival and Vasto Italy Festival. She also performed a recital in Barletta, Italy.

In Taiwan, Lu performed "An Evening of Fantasy with the Taipei Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra, "Care for Taiwan's Land Restoration Concert"[8] - Robert Schumann's Concerto in A Minor with Philharmonia Moment Musical, "Sound Of Formosa"[9] - the Piano Concerto premiere of Gordon Shi-Wen Chin with the National Symphony Orchestra, and "Evening of Dance" - Piano Recital, among others.

Multimedia works

Lu's Amore multimedia work [10] mixed a classical recital with animation created from Paul Chiang's paintings. Her "Water on Fire" piano recital [11] combined Western classical music with Eastern poetry from a Taiwan poet, Goya Lan. Lu curated artwork from over thirty seven artists at the Art Taipei exhibition.[12] She was later invited to perform at the opening ceremony of Art Taipei 2020,[13] and at the Diversonics Festival 2021.[14]

Lu was the Music Director for Sayion I [15] and Sayion II,[16] which incorporated music with dancers that are suited up in sensors that controlled the visual background. In collaboration with IF+, Lu produced "Obsession", employing XR extended reality (XR) technology, which extends existing virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR) and mixed reality (MR) technologies.[17]
