Composers

Kah Hoe YII

Yii Kah Hoe is the winner of Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra Forum for Malaysian Composers 2 (2007) and a recipient of the 3rd Prize in the International Composition for Chinese Orchestra organized by Singapore Chinese Orchestra (2006).
He is also the festival director of the Kuala Lumpur Contemporary Music Festival (Malaysia, 2009) and a senior lecturer at SEGi College.
Yii’s music is perceived as bold and avant-garde. His pieces use sounds and rhythms of many traditional instruments from various ethnic cultures. The sensitivity of space that he mastered as a Chinese ink painter in his younger years is also evident in his music. Yii’s compositions have been performed in the US, London, Trinidad, Germany, Mexico, Paris, Italy, Melbourne, Bangkok, Hanoi, Manila, Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Singapore and Malaysia.
