Living Music: Ian Chang

Ian Chang is a virtuosic, genre-agnostic percussionist, composer, and producer who manipulates sound samples into a seamless synthesis of raw intensity and sophisticated sound design. Since joining eclectic trio Son Lux in 2014 and supporting artists such as Moses Sumney, Matthew Dear, and CHVRCHES, Chang’s debut 2020 full-length record, 属 Belonging, offered deeper insight into his unique and ever-evolving vision. Chang is an in-demand soundtrack artist who scored the 2022 Best Picture Oscar winner Everything Everywhere All at Once with Son Lux, for which the band was nominated for two Academy Awards and a BAFTA. Performing as part of both Chinese Arts Week and Nadia Sirota's Living Music program, Chang's Lincoln Center debut headlining set will feature selections from his earlier solo work and new projects in process.
