  • XUEFEI YANG the Internationally Acclaimed Guitarist, Xuefei Yang, Has Been a Pioneering Spirit Since Childhood
    XUEFEI YANG The internationally acclaimed guitarist, Xuefei Yang, has been a pioneering spirit since childhood. As the first guitarist in China to enter a music school and graduate from the Central Conservatory of Music in Beijing with a BA degree, she was the first guitarist from her country to study classical guitar in the west. The first Chinese student ever to receive an international scholarship from the Associated Board of The Royal Schools of Music, Xuefei came to England for her postgraduate study at The Royal Academy of Music. Born in Beijing, Xuefei began playing the guitar at the age of seven, taking formal tuition at ten from Chen Zhi. Soon after, she made her first public appearance at the First China International Guitar Festival. Immediately she gained such acclaim that the Spanish Ambassador in China presented her with a handmade concert guitar. During her school years, she played extensively in China, Hong Kong, Macau, Spain and Australia and gave concert tours in Taiwan, Japan and Portugal. At only eleven, she won 2nd prize in the Beijing Senior Guitar competition being the only child competitor. When playing in Tokyo the following year, she was given a special award by the Guitar Alliance of Japan and the celebrated Japanese luthier Masaru Kohno presented her with one of his concert guitars. The composer Rodrigo attended her debut concert in Madrid when she was fourteen. In 1995 John Williams came to Beijing. He was so impressed with her playing that he gave two of his own Smallman guitars to her Conservatory especially for her and other top students to play.

Summary of the impact (indicative maximum 100 words) The University of Surrey has established the International Guitar Research Centre, led by Prof. Steve Goss and Dr. Milton Mermikides, a central strand of which experiments with the innovative use of acoustic resonance. Practice-based research outcomes (compositions) have created impact as artworks, having been recorded on Deutsche Grammophon, EMI, Telarc, Naxos, and Virgin Classics. CD sales emerging from the project are in excess of 200,000. The compositions have been performed internationally by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and Barcelona Symphony Orchestra. The new techniques developed at Surrey are utilised by renowned musicians, such as John Williams, Xuefei Yang, Andrew Lloyd Webber, David Russell, and Miloš Karadaglić. 2. Underpinning research (indicative maximum 500 words) A key element of Surrey’s International Guitar Research Centre’s work explores innovative approaches to the use of acoustic resonance in writing for guitar. The research dates back to 2003 and from its start integrated partnerships with national and international collaborators in music and composition studies, such as Jonathan Leathwood, Denver University; Michael Partington, University of Washington; Xuefei Yang, EMI Classics; Craig Ogden, Royal Northern College of Music. It took its departure from exploring new techniques and approaches to playing the guitar (such as composing a piece for two guitars to be played simultaneously by one player) and developing new notational strategies to clarify the musical intentions.
