Nuages Trio

Future, Rebirth, Transformation

I Bring fresh showers for the thirsting flowers,

From the seas and the streams;

I bear light shad for the leaves when laid

In their noon-day dreams.

From my wings are shaken the dews that waken

The sweet birds every one,

When rocked to rest on their mother's breast,

As she dances about the sun.

I wield the flail of the lashing hail,

And whiten the green plains under,

And then again I dissolve it in rain,

And laugh as I pass in thunder.

------Percy Bysshe Shelley

About Us

In 2024, the Canadian chamber music scene welcomed Nuages Trio, a dynamic ensemble featuring clarinetist Minghao Liu, pianist Melody Sham, and cellist Yiyang Xue. With each member being highly acclaimed in their field, Nuages Trio promises a captivating musical journey filled with rich performances.

Their mission is to explore the boundless potential of chamber music, offering audiences a charming world of music through unique interpretations and superb skills. They aim to establish themselves on both Canadian and international stages, continuously challenging themselves and striving for excellence.

Nuages Trio has been invited to the AlpenKammer Musik festival in Austria, providing them with valuable opportunities to learn from international musicians and inject new vitality into their journey. They also plan to compete in Europe in September 2024, seeking further recognition and opportunities.

Before these international ventures, Nuages Trio will perform concerts in Vancouver, Canada, and Chicago, USA, in May 2024, alongside recording projects, marking significant milestones in their career.

Guided and supported by top professors from institutions like Northwestern University and the University of British Columbia. These include Stephen Williamson, principal clarinetist of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Jeanette Jonquil, principal clarinetist of the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra, David Fung, a doctoral graduate of Yale University and professor of piano at UBC, and Eric Wilson, former cellist of the Emerson String Quartet. The careful guidance and support from these professors have laid a solid foundation and provided motivation for Nuages Trio's musical journey.
