I-Cheng (Edison) Liu is a Taiwanese cellist recognized for his deeply expressive and moving performances as both a soloist and chamber musician. A graduate of The Juilliard School, he is currently pursuing his Master of Music degree there under the guidance of Natasha Brofsky and Clara Kim, and also works closely with Ben Hong, Assistant Principal Cellist of the Los Angeles Philharmonic. His previous mentors include legendary cellists Lynn Harrell, Joel Krosnick, and Jens Peter Maintz.

In 2022, I-Cheng was awarded First Prize at the International Prestigious Harrell Dungey Cello Loan Competition. He performs on the Christopher Dungey cello formerly played by Lynn Harrell, with strings generously sponsored by Pirastro.

An active chamber musician, I-Cheng was selected for Taiwan’s Eslite “New Voices” Young Chamber Music Project in 2025, earning featured performance opportunities. That same year, he joined the Taiwan Performing Arts Association, performing alongside Juilliard faculty violinist Joseph Lin and fellow Juilliard alumni. In the 2026 season, he will appear as a guest artist with the Taiwan Resonance Music Society and the Changhua Chamber Music Society, touring with violinist Ming-Feng Hsin.

Beyond the concert stage, I-Cheng is dedicated to community engagement and music education, presenting outreach concerts and lectures in underserved areas as well as charitable performances in hospitals, including Mount Sinai. His artistry bridges Western classical traditions with his Taiwanese cultural roots, bringing warmth, depth, and sincerity to audiences worldwide.
