Chong Kee Yong ​ 钟启荣

Dr. CHONG Kee Yong, one of Malaysia’s leading contemporary music composers, possesses one of the most exciting voices in music today. His work has been hailed as “imaginative and poetic” by conductor-composer Peter Eötvös, and as “inventive and artistically pure” by composer Jonathan Harvey. The uniqueness of his music stems not only from a rich palette of sounds, but his experimentation with traditions, infusing his own Chinese and multi-cultural Malaysian heritage with his work.

Dr. Chong's distinctive style has won him many awards and commissions. His list of prizes at various competitions is remarkable, for example the Prix Marcel Hastir by Belgium Royal Academy of Sciences, Letters & Fine-arts (1999, 2003), the 4th International Andrzej Panufnik Competition for Young Composers in Poland (2002), the Grand Prix at the 2nd Seoul International Competition for Composers (2003), the Max-Reger-Tage International Composition Competition in Germany (2004), the Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra International Composers' Award (2004), second prize at the 2nd Lepo Sumera International Young Composer Prize (2006), Lutoslawski Award (2006), BMW Award in the International Isang Yun Music Prize in Korea (2007), 2nd prize in the Preisträgerkonzert des Internationalen Kompositionswettbewerbes "global music—contemporary expression" in Germany, 3rd prize in Luxembourg International Composition Award 2008 and Giga-Hertz-Award 2009 (Germany).

He has been awarded the composer-in-residency with Akademie der Künste (Germany), Herrenhaus Edenkoben (Germany), Asian Cultural Council (USA), the Center Henri Pousseur (Belgium), SWR EXPERIMENTALSTUDIO (Germany), Civitella Ranieri Foundation Fellowship 2014 (USA/Italy), National Gugak Center Fellowship 2015 (Korea), ignm-vs_forum Wallis 2017 (Switzerland) and Spring Workshop 2017 (Hong Kong). He is the first Malaysian composer received the prestigious commission grant award by the Serge Koussevitzky Music Foundation (USA) and the prestigious "The Outstanding Young Malaysian Awards" in the Cultural Achievement category. To recognize Chong’s contributions to South East Asia’s contemporary music scene, Huddersfield University (UK) awarded him a full scholarship for a special PhD by publication 2014-2016 under the guidance of Prof. Liza Lim.

Dr. Chong is the creative director of Studio C and conductor of Studio C ensemble, former president (2017-2019) and recent executive committee of Society of Malaysian Contemporary Composers. He was the artistic director of the 2009 Kuala Lumpur Contemporary Music Festival and SMCC Contemporary Music Festival “SoundBridge” 2013, 2015, 2017 and 2019. In 2016-2017 he was visiting professor of the Shanghai Conservatory of Music and in 2018 visiting professor of Danish Royal Academy of Music. 
 

鍾啟榮博士,馬來西亞頂尖作曲家,獲獎無數,也是當代其中一名令人驚喜的作曲家。鍾啟榮大膽將各種精美的音色混合在一起,是在為數不多的實驗音樂家中的佼佼者。著名作曲家Peter Eötvös形容他為富有想像力和詩意的作曲家,Jonathan Harvey則形容他的音樂極具創造力和純潔。比利時鋼琴家Jan Michiels和Inge Spinette則將他的音樂形容為“非常具有特色、深度和說服力”。

鍾啟榮博士的卓越表現,讓他贏得無數獎項。他在1999年和2003年,兩度獲得比利時皇家科學文學與藝術研究院頒發的Marcel Hastir大獎。在他的家鄉馬來西亞,鍾啟榮也在2004年獲得馬來西亞國油愛樂交響樂團國際作曲家大獎中獲得殊榮。返回家鄉馬來西亞後,他也在音樂藝術節嶄露頭角,成為該國作曲界的先驅人物。

鍾啟榮博士的得獎紀錄包括:比利時皇家科學文學與藝術研究院Marcel Hastir大獎(1999年、2003年)、第四屆波蘭安德烈·帕努夫尼克青年作曲家獎(2002年)、第二屆首爾國際作曲賽大獎(2003年)、2003年德國馬克斯雷格國際作曲家比賽、馬來西亞國油愛樂交響樂團國際作曲大獎(2004年)、第二屆愛沙尼亞國際Lepo Sumera青年作曲家比賽第二名(2006年)、首爾尹伊桑國際作曲家比賽BMW大獎(2007年)、波蘭華沙盧托拉斯基獎第二名(2006年)、Giga-Hertz-Award 2009特別獎(德國爾斯魯厄ZKM電子音樂聲學中心)。

因此,他也獲得多個團體和機構邀請成為駐院作曲家,包括德國柏林藝術研究院(德國)、埃登科本鄉村別墅基金會(德國)、亞洲文化協會(美國)、亨利•布瑟電子音樂中心(比利時)、德國西南廣播電台實驗工作室(德國弗萊堡)、Civitella Ranieri基金會(美國/意大利)、韓國傳統國樂中心和瑞士ignm-vs_forum Wallis, 春天工作室(香港)和阿聯阿布達比文化高峯論壇。

鍾啟榮博士也是第一位獲得美國庫塞維茲音樂基金會委約獎項的馬來西亞人,同時也獲得馬來西亞十大傑出青年獎(文化成就獎)。在2014年,英國哈德斯菲爾德大學(Huddersfield University)基於他對東南亞當代樂壇的貢獻,而授予和頒發全額獎學金的出版哲學博士學位(2014-2016)。

鍾啟榮博士是C工作室的創意總監兼指揮,馬來西亞當代作曲家協會(SMCC)副會長(2011至2016)和會長 (2017-2019),2009年吉隆坡現代音樂節藝術總監。並曾擔任2013年, 2015年2017年和2019年馬來西亞當代作曲家協會現代音樂節“音橋”製作人兼藝術總監,並將會繼續擔任該職,繼續以他的藝術經驗為馬來西亞的作曲界付出心力。
