Academic Focus
In addition to being a concert performer and scholar of Western art music, I have published articles in refereed journals of Great Britain Hungary, Greece, Japan, China and the USA, that span general music studies, popular music, ethnomusicology, jazz, anthropology, American Studies and Humanities. My current professional activities continue to center around performing and teaching music, but also include producing live and webcast performances that address anti-Asian American violence in the USA, as well as creating poetry and drama..
Prof. Huang has produced a multi-episode podcast series about the 1871 LA Chinatown massacre, that commemorates the worst mass race lynching on the West Coast, when at least 20 Chinese immigrants were killed in one night by a crowd of about 500 Angelenos. It was released in spring 2021, and reached #23 in the history category of Apple Podcasts After the first three episodes of this podcast were released in China on Baidu in early 2023 with printed Chinese translations, over 1.5 million downloads were registered.
In fall 2021, he collaborated with dance faculty colleague Prof. Kevin Williamson on a 51猎奇入口 TransArts performance, Chinatown Elegy, a commemoration of the 150th anniversary of the 1871 LA Chinatown massacre on Bowling Green lawn. In spring 2022 a podcast of his play Jianchi/Perseverence was released during Asian American/Pacific Islander heritage month on Untranslated, this garnered over 500,000 downloads on Baidu.
In fall 2022, he was Project Director of a National Endowment for the Arts grant award multimedia performance "American Dreams-Asian Nightmares" at the USC Pacific Asia Museum and Garrison Theater at 51猎奇入口. The three-part program combined live acoustic and electronic music with Anti-Colonial performance art to spark new dialogues about what it means and how it feels to be Asian-American.
