About Zhuyang

Zhuyang Liu is a famous Guzheng musician, composer, sound engineer, and producer with a rich background in both traditional and contemporary music. Encouraged at a young age by Zhou Xin, virtuoso of the Guzheng Northern sect and member of the National Orchestra of China Broadcasting Art Troupe, Zhuyang developed a deep passion for Chinese string instruments. Specialising in the 21-string Guzheng, 16 steel-string Guzheng, and the Multi-tone Guzheng, Zhuyang continuously explores other plucked string instruments such as the Guqin, Duxianqin, and Koto. A winner of the second prize in solo and first prize in ensemble performance at the 2013 China-Japan-Korea International Guzheng Conference. Active in London/China's music scenes, played with Grammy award musicians, as musician played Guzheng in famous film and video games.


Zhuyang’s work embodies a seamless fusion of ethnic tradition and contemporary experimentation. Zhuyang’s approach to music is profoundly creative, encouraging students to begin their musical journey by exploring new ideas and perspectives. Every lesson offers a safe, relaxed, and open space where students can comfortably express themselves. By blending fundamental techniques with innovative musical practices, Zhuyang fosters a learning environment that promotes both discipline and freedom. Zhuyang’s confluent cultural background and experiences in multidisciplinary fields has created a provocative combination of ethnic insights and contemporary dialogue in their works and vision. The extreme playing of the reconstructed instruments immerses with the electronic acoustics moving in parallel across the soundscape. Features elements of Jazz fusion, dub, drum & bass, ambient, oriental, and tribal.

Recent performance including British museum, Hundred Years Gallery, Frappant e.V. gallery, Hamburg/Staffordshire St, London//San Mei Gallery, London/SYSTEM, Shanghai/Matchstick Piehouse, London etc.

From 2022-2023, Zhuyang scored, sound designed independent film ‘NOW, THEN- 5.1 channel audio’, “Run! Dorothy Run!” scored and sound directed multiple projects of fashion collections and runways, following by multiple physical CD releases. Zhuyang’s UK & China based project include: collective ‘Lao San Yang’, ‘Epic life doggerel verse’. Zhuyang’s extreme playing of the reconstructed instruments immerses the viewer in a romantic playroom while discovering fictional narratives moving in parallel across the soundscape. "absurd and dramatic" of the works came from the occult context of the instruments while the causes of the sound are challenged by its physicality. ZHUYANGER 撞, is a hybrid project system of Zhuyang Liu. Audiences are sobered up by world-infused sound, and deliriously poetic language while the fusion of chordophone with electronica grooves the brains.
