ABOUT WANG LEEHOM:
The first Chinese pop star and actor to be invited speak at the Oxford Union,
Wang Leehom is the perfect ambassador for Chinese pop music and commentator
on the emergence of "World Pop," not only because he has sold millions of
albums and consistently been one of the hottest names in Chinese music since
his debut in 1995, but also because of the unique journey he has taken from
his childhood home of Rochester, New York, to concert stages and movie sets
around the world.
Formally trained at Williams College and the prestigious Berklee College of
Music, Leehom has written and recorded songs in a large variety of styles,
including pop, rap, hip-hop, jazz and R&B, and is also known for his
pioneering infusion of traditional Chinese elements and instrumentation into
contemporary music. In addition to his successful solo concert tours, the
latest of which will bring him to The O2 in London on April 15, Leehom's
diverse musical talents have seen him perform onstage with everyone from
Usher to Kenny G to the Hong Kong Philharmonic, with which he appeared as as
a guest conductor and violin soloist.
Additionally, Leehom is an acclaimed actor who has starred in the Golden Lion
Award-winning "Lust, Caution" from Ang Lee, "Little Big Soldier" opposite
Jackie Chan and the self-written and directed "Love in Disguise". He is also
well known for his philanthropic work and environmental advocacy, which were
cited as reasons he was the only Chinese recording artist selected as a
torchbearer for the London 2012 Olympic Games.
With over 33 million followers, Leehom is among the most followed
personalities on Weibo (a Chinese analogue to Twitter).
