Welcome!




Hi😊

I am Ziyue (Monica) Piao, a first year Ph.D. student at Schulich School of Music, McGill University supervised by Prof. Marcelo M. Wanderley and Prof. Isabelle Cossette.

I am a Soprano classical singer and was a choir singer of Shanghai Jiao Tong University. My dream is to help more people without much musical background to enjoy music and express themselves through music. I have broadly interested in music education and transferring knowledge between music teacher and students (mainly in singing).
