About

Tiffany Ng is an associate professor of carillon and university carillonist at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. She is an energetic advocate of diversity in contemporary music, having premiered or revived over sixty pieces by emerging and established composers, and pioneered models for interactive crowdsourced carillon performances and environmental-data-driven sound installations. Her work significantly increased the American repertoire for carillon and electronics through her collaborations with various composers. Ng's concert career has taken her to festivals in fifteen countries across Europe, Australia, Asia, and North America, including notable events such as the University of Chicago Rockefeller Carillon New Music Festival, Canberra Carillon Festival, and the International Carillon Festivals in Barcelona and Bok Tower Gardens. She has also taught master classes at prestigious institutions including Yale University, the Eastman School of Music, and the University of Chicago. Her academic background includes a licentiate diploma from the Royal Carillon School “Jef Denyn,” a PhD from UC Berkeley, a master’s degree from the Eastman School of Music, and a bachelor’s degree from Yale University. Her research explores the intersection of music technology, history, and urban planning, with a focus on the carillon and organ in the context of modernism and Cold War diplomacy.
