  mentoring_philosophy: |-
    I am committed to maintaining well-organized schedules that provide clarity and coherence to my mentees. Our weekly meetings are an essential cornerstone of our interaction, offering a dedicated time for us to connect. In case of emergencies, I encourage my mentees to reach out to me promptly, allowing us to collaboratively address any challenges that may arise.

    My profound gratitude goes out to the mentors who supported me on my academic journey. As I continue to grow and evolve, I am motivated to extend that same generosity and assistance to as many young students as possible. It's my belief that, with my increasing strength, I can pay forward the kindness and guidance I once received.

    At the heart of my mentoring philosophy is the core duty of guiding mentees in exploring their full potential. I hold the conviction that every individual possesses a unique and exceptional essence. Recognizing that mentees might initially find certain aspects of their projects unfamiliar, I approach this phase with patience, providing unwavering support throughout. By fostering a nurturing environment and offering guidance, I am confident that mentees will progressively refine their skills and capabilities. Through a process of encouragement and careful guidance, their growth is inevitable – transforming them from their starting point to a realm of enhanced proficiency and self-assuredness.

  overall_research_project_description: |
    Yi-Chih Lu is one of the most prominent and popular young musicians in Taiwan during recent years. Lu composed series of piano arrangements of Taiwanese folk music. It is noticeable that his works are becoming the most popular choice for people who want to play some piano music about Taiwan, public also shows great passion to these pieces. 

    Born in Taipei, Taiwan, he began studying piano at the age of five. Afterward, he went to Europe and received his Master Degree at the University of Music and Performing Arts in Vienna and Artist Diploma from the University of the Arts in Berlin. In addition to his Western classical music studies in Europe, Lu also retains a keen interest in Taiwan’s traditional musical culture. Therefore, he seeks to merge both types of cultures in his musical compositions. 

    This project will explore how Lu reinvigorates Taiwanese folk tunes and transcribes them into solo piano works in his familiar classical way and explain why people feel acquainted when they listen to Lu’s Asian tunes. Not only thinking about how to keep the original character of the folk songs, but Lu also aims to maximize the potential of the piano. This creative combination leads to the ever-increasing popularity of his works worldwide. It is meaningful to see how an Asian musician employs concepts and ideas that he was taught by Western classical music and applies to his treatment of his homeland’s folk tunes.
