Chau-Lin Huang

Christine Liu (周瑞芳), New Conductor. Has studied voice and conducting, has extensive experience in teaching and conducting.  Sang as a soloist in many chorus concerts. A conductor of a church children's choir for 14 years in Fort Worth.

Milton Liu (劉恩瑜), Assistant Conductor. Plays violin and piano and has extensive experience in directing youth choral groups. Currently studying choral conducting under Professor. Jing Ling Tam at UTA. is a conductor of a children's choir in a church in Fort Worth.

As you all know, our conductor Ling Jing has commitments in many areas outside of SeaSky and she is often out of town or out of country. Because of her priority and more pressing commitments, it is very difficult for her to come to our rehearsals on a regular weekly basis. This is a fact we must realize and accept it. We also know that the past growth of SeaSky choir and the success of our first concert in March was due primarily to Ling Jing's unique training methods, exceptional professional quality, and above all, to her vision and stewardship.  We treasure all these precious qualities Ling Jing has and proud that SeaSky Choir has benefited from her qualities for the past 18 months. Regrettable to say, we have to face with the reality I just described above. Ling Jing cannot conduct for us on a regular basis in the future. 

Nevertheless, Ling Jing has agreed to become our Artistic Advisor and will continue to work with us on a needed basis. She will guide us in an advisory role and she will come to help us when needed, but she will not be conducting SeaSky Choir regularly. We deeply appreciate her continuing interest in the SeaSky Choir and we thank her for all the good things she has done for our choir. 

 I am equally pleased to tell you that Christine Liu has been appointed as our new conductor. She came from Taiwan more than 30 years ago, and has studied voice and conducting among others and has extensive conducting and teaching experiences. She is currently a conductor of a young children's singing group in a church in Fort Worth. She goes to music camps often to train singers. She and Ling Jing are good friends for many years.

Christine Liu has a son by name of Milton. Milton is very musical, plays violin and piano and has extensive experience in training and working with young singers. He also goes to music camps often and has studied with Ling Jing for two semesters. Milton also conducts a children's singing group in another church in Forth Worth. He went to US Navy Academy for a while and speaks fluent Chinese. Milton will come to SeaSky with his mother and he will help train our men and play piano when needed.
