A message from the Founder
As a professional cellist with a passion for pushing the boundaries of musical expression, I am thrilled to share my journey and artistry with you. Throughout my career, I’ve been privileged to perform on international stages, from the classical halls of Europe to the vibrant scenes of Asia, blending tradition with innovation.

My achievements include winning the Grand Award at the 2019 Grand International Music and Talent Festival in Malaysia and being named among Malaysia’s Top 10 Outstanding Artists. Competing on global platforms has been a source of immense pride, such as earning recognition at the International Competition "Young Virtuosos" and the National Competition for Young Musicians and Singers "Svetoslav Obretenov".
I’ve also had the honor of serving as an adjudicator for esteemed events like the World Championship International Competition 2024 and the Shanghai International Music Competition 2023, where I’ve witnessed the incredible talent and spirit of musicians worldwide.
​
I am an internationally acclaimed musician with a distinguished career spanning multiple countries, including Prague (Czech Republic), Kiev (Ukraine), Vienna (Austria), and Beijing (China). I have enthralled audiences during my tour in France and showcased my performances in esteemed cultural centers such as Hong Kong, Macau, and Malaysia.
​
My artistic journey reflects a deep passion for music and a commitment to sharing my talent worldwide, and that is why I am here in Malaysia - to inspire and enrich the local music scene through my Music Academy.
At Lyu Music Academy, every note tells a story, every performance is an adventure, and every melody is a masterpiece waiting to be discovered.
