Chang Sun is a 2020 music graduate from University College Dublin, Ireland, who is currently studying for an MPhil at Hong Kong University. She has been writing musicology papers on German, French and Russian classical music, including composers such as Beethoven, Camille Saint-Saëns, Stravinsky and Shostakovich. She has also been playing the piano since small in China, and finds Schubert particularly fascinating. She was an alto in University College Dublin's Philharmonic Choir, and played in a piano quartet as accompanist for Bertolt Brecht's drama Mother Courage and Her Children. Some of her favourites in classical music include Igor Markevitch's Tchaikovsky Symphony No 6, Dinu Lipatti and Murray Perahia.
