This is a special concert featuring renowned soprano Dr. Yixuan Han. (韓藝璇博士)
(Tickets $30-$120, Students Free with RSVP)

Dr. Han’s captivating, powerful voice has been heard across multiple continents, and she is the winner of multiple vocal and opera awards, including the Bellini Award and Chinese National Vocal Competition. In 2019 she won the University of North Texas (UNT)’s concerto competition as a vocalist (instrumentalists and vocalists were in the field). She is a multi-time invitee artist on China’s National television (CCTV). Dr. Han completed her Doctorate in Musical Arts in Applied Voice and Vocal Pedagogy with Dr. Stephen F. Austin at the University of North Texas.

In addition to her luminous career as a performer, Dr. Han is a pioneering educator in developing a new version of IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) for Chinese songs. Her work has contributed greatly to bringing these cultural works to a wide range of international vocalists. This concert is presented by the International Association of Music and Arts (IAMA).
