Taiwan-Mongolia Liaison
Project No.2
The Taiwan-Mongolian Liaison was initiated by Dr. Weichen Lin during his tenure at National Chiayi University. It began with Dr. Lin’s first visit to the Mongolian State Conservatory in 2023, which led to the invitation of the Conservatory’s percussion ensemble to Taiwan the following year. During this exchange, the two institutions signed a sister-school agreement and presented a joint premiere concert at National Chiayi University. In 2025, Chiayi University reciprocated with a historic visit to Mongolia, marking the first bilateral exchange between the two schools and laying a significant foundation for long-term collaboration in music education and cultural exchange.
「台灣-蒙古交流計畫」(Taiwan-Mongolian Liaison)是由林威震博士在任教於國立嘉義大學期間所促成。起源於2023年林博士首次造訪國立蒙古音樂院,進而促成該院打擊樂團於隔年訪問台灣,並與國立嘉義大學簽署姐妹校合作協議,雙方於嘉義舉行聯合音樂會首演。2025年,國立嘉義大學回訪蒙古國立音樂院,完成兩校之間首次歷史性互訪,為台蒙音樂教育與文化交流奠定重要基礎。

Romance of Resonance
Project 3 - Romance of Resonance
“Romance of Resonance” is a marimba solo concert series created by Dr. Weichen Lin beginning in 2025.
This series stems from his deep appreciation and refined taste for the marimba’s timbre and solo repertoire. Through the careful selection of works and instrument setups that best highlight the marimba’s resonant qualities, the instrument’s sound is allowed to bloom and shine vividly within each performance space.
With every concert, Weichen Lin aims to open the audience’s ears and imagination to the marimba, allowing listeners to experience the instrument’s rich emotional depth and tonal expression. Ultimately, he hopes to foster a deeper connection and resonance—not only between the audience and the music, but also among the instrument, the performer, and the space they share.
《Romance of Resonance》是林威震博士自2025年起所打造的馬林巴琴獨奏音樂會品牌。
這個系列源於他對馬林巴琴音色與演奏曲目的深刻鑑賞與品味,透過細膩挑選最能展現馬林巴琴共鳴特質的作品與樂器配置,讓這項樂器的聲響在空間中綻放出動人光彩。林威震期望藉由每一場演出,打開觀眾對馬林巴琴的全新感知與想像,不僅讓聽者感受到這樂器豐富的情感層次與音色表現,更能在共鳴中,與樂器、音樂,甚至演奏者之間產生更深的連結與共鳴。
