Winnie Huang is a violinist, gestural performer, composer, and artistic researcher whose work explores how sound is shaped through the body. Her practice moves between concert performance, composition, research, and pedagogy, approaching each as an interconnected form of inquiry. At the centre of her work lies an ongoing investigation into the relationship between music and gesture: how movement generates sonic articulation, how technique embodies knowledge, and how artistic identity evolves across contexts.

 

Alongside her artistic activity, Winnie maintains an active international presence as a lecturer and educator. She regularly gives guest lectures, workshops, and presentations at conservatoires and universities across Europe and beyond, contributing to discussions on artistic research, embodiment, artistic citizenship and contemporary performance practice.

 

Previously she served as Junior Professor of Artistic Research at the Hochschule für Musik und Tanz Köln, Germany, and in 2025 she was appointed Associate Professor for Research in Music Performance at the Conservatorio della Svizzera italiana in Lugano, Switzerland. Her work there spans masters and doctoral supervision, curriculum development, and the design of transdisciplinary research frameworks within performance contexts.
